The script files in this archive are designed to utilize the advanced
features of the repective modems. The assumption is that the user wants
maximum throughput and the highest level of firmware error-correction
available.
One thing to be aware of: all these script files turn on the modem's
hardware flow control option (RTS/CTS). This is desirable in all cases
with one important exception, shelling to DOS out of Host Mode. If you
have one of these modems attached to the Host machine and you plan to
let callers shell to DOS, make sure to send the Host modem the command to
turn hardware flow control off. The reason is that DOS does not respond
to the state of the RTS/CTS lines. If the modem were to lower CTS while
the user was in DOS, the operating system may hang with an "ERROR WRITING
DEVICE COMx" message.
