"/dev/tty" is your job's own controlling terminal. You need to specify the
device name of a tty device separate from your job's controlling terminal.
That is, you can't dial out on the same device that you are coming in from.

C-Kermit is designed to be fully script-driven so it can run completely
unattended, e.g. from a cron job. The current version is 6.0:

To make effective use of it -- especially if you want to write "batch jobs",
you'll need the manual:
