  24. I hate to continue this thread because it is getting quite lengthly,
  25. however, I feel it necessary to comtinue comment.
  26.  
  27. First off, I am aware of S2, and for that matter, every other register in a
  28. standard modem, however I must still maintain that just because it exists
  29. doesn't mean that using it is a good idea, in fact, I believe it isn't.
  30. Changing the escape character may render other communication applications
  31. useless because most assume "+" as the escape character, and they would
  32. break.  Disabling--rather than changing--the sequence would also break
  33. things.
  34.  
  35. What I did do was:
  36.  
  37. set modem hangup-method rs232-signal
  38.  
  39. This avoids the escape sequence altogether.  However, it is not working
  40. completely.
  41.  
  42. Typing hangup while online does not hangup, but leaving kermit does.  How
  43. strange.  Go figure.
  44. As far as I know the cabling is fine, so the signal should be getting to the
  45. modem.
  46. Anyways my problem has been mostly solved.
