- It compiles easily under Amiga NetBSD-1.0 and works well, though I haven't

- DIP is mainly a tool to establish a SLIP connection. It handles all
- the necessary actions to set up the tty port and the modem, dial out
- and finally build up a SLIP connection between the tty port and the
- kernel. To do so, dip offers an own very simple command language (a
- mostly complete description can be found in the man page).
-
- Dip can handle both incoming and outgoing connections using password
- security for incoming connections.
-
- This dip version was ported from Linux to NetBSD, although it will
- work on other BSDish systems as well.
