- I don't know about all unices but in Linux I have just tried something
- like 'fopen ("/dev/modem","w");' and then fprintf to send commands and
- it worked. Also, there is a library libmodem for Linux:

- ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/libs/

- I never used it though. Try to download it even if you have another unix,
- may be it includes source or some pointer to the C code...
