  16. This loop in my MS-Kermit 3.15 dialing script appears to be
  17. infinite. Is there something I'm missing about the CLEAR and
  18. REINPUT commands? I would expect REINPUT 0 <anything> to fail
  19. after the input buffer has been cleared.
  20.  
  21.     clear
  22. :clear_loop
  23.     reinput 0 CARRIER
  24.     if failure forward clear_exit
  25.     echo DEBUG: Buffer did not clear
  26.     clear
  27.     pause 1
  28.     if failure forward user_cancelled
  29.     goto clear_loop
  30. :clear_exit
  31.  
  32. Thanks,
