The m option appears to prevent the modem from receiving AT commands. Not
only won't it respond to the init string (at&f1 OK) it also won't go
offhook and dial. So I dialed without it.
I am going to try that option now, having already dialed and ssh'ed. I had
to hit Ctrl-L after exiting help. That worked, sort of, but now I can do a
carriage return but not a line feed - the line feed jumps over a
paragraph instead of inserting a blank line when used between paragraphs.
Before I was getting unwanted line feeds with the first Enter. You have
narrowed down the problem, anyway. I wonder if the author ever tested this
with a bbs.
An Enter at the end of a line followed by another line acts like Ctrl-J
(moves the next line back to where Enter was hit). Sindi
