- That would be nice. But barring a script capability in DNET, you can come
- close by using a different term program to log on, then exit and run DNET.
- You just need to tell the modem to ignore DTR. I use VLT to dial up, set
- terminal parameters, log on, and then exit. Then I run dnet. I suppose it
- could even be done in a script if you wanted to eliminate one step.
