Yes, the "DIAL" macro, quite extensively documented in the text
files in the MSKERMIT .zip file.
It would have been more useful if you'd mentioned what the command is
("DO DIAL number") and what file it is documented in (KERMIT.UPD).
Saying that the documentation is somewhere in the Kermit directory is
almost useless -- MS-DOS doesn't come with a grep that can handle
wildcards.
