And change your settings in term, miami, stfax, etc. Yeah, I know you can
just write your settings to the NVRAM in the modem but that's not perfect.
Also, alot of people don't have the hayes AT codes embedded in their brain.

It would be nice if AmigaOS had a standard for dealing with modems. As well
as the usual init strings things like voice commands can be quite different
between brands. A standard for fax would be nice also. tapi.library anyone?.
