This all depends on exactly what you mean by "enter the long distance code".
I assume you mean by touch-tones, right? Assuming you have a Hayes-like
modem, this would normally be done as follows:
ATDT7654321,,,,,,9876543
This "dials the number", then the commas wait for a bunch of seconds, then
the next number is dialed.
If on the other hand you mean typing a number into some kind of online
access server, then that's something you would do after you get carrier,
which could be automated using INPUT and OUTPUT as described in the book.
