  21. I'm trying to use Kermit 95 on a WinXP host to modem dial a group of
  22. point-of-sale devices. I'd like to set up the phone numbers in a
  23. dialing directory and then have a script loop through the directory,
  24. calling each device and downloading sales data, until each device has
  25. been polled. It seems like there should be an easy way to do this, but
  26. I can't find anything short of using normal file I/O to scan the
  27. directory file, pull out each name, and give it to the dial command.
