- I know it is possible to automagically detect if a remote user calling
- in on a modem is using a specific emulation, but I am curious as to
- how it is done. I have seen several BBS (I think they were PCboard)
- that can detect ANSI and another computer that I know of can detect
- VT100. Thanks!
