If someone does, please send him the _entire_ ACE C package out of courtesy
to the original author, Ralph Walden.

Yes.

And now the modem question:  My dad recently bought a 300 baud modem
for $8.95 from the back shelf of a computer store in town.  It's
called "The Pocket Modem" and it was made by the same people who
made APE FACE (I believe they're out of business now).  The modem plugs
directly into the serial port of the disk drive.  It seems to work
just fine and my dad has had a great time calling up the local bulletin
boards.  Now he'd like to try it with other modem software, but it
doesn't seem to have a handler--everything's  hardcoded in the
software that came with the modem.  He'd be willing to write a CIO
handler for it, but he really doesn't know what the modem commands are
(other than by disassembling the modem software).  So, does anyone know
anything at all about this modem?

Thanks!
