[net.micro] How do you access the PC7300 modem?

Does anyone out there have any idea how to use dial(3) on the
PC7300?  I've tried, but I get a message about three missing routines
(tgetnum, tgetent, tget...).  These routines are present in
libtermcap and libtermlib, but the problem seems to be that they
are not defined to dial in libc, because the error comes from
libc.  

Also, I've been able to dial via ioctl's, but haven't been able 
to figure out how to get the internal modem to respond once the
carrier from the called modem shows up.  Querying the dialer via
ioctl doesn't help,  it doesn't seem to be able to detect anything
but a dial tone, regardless of the mnemonics for other conditions
which are present in phone.h.

I'm trying to write a 'ct' like routine, which is why I'm asking.
If I'm reinventing the wheel, let me know.  The PC7300 I'm working
on has 'cu' but not 'ct'.

Does anyone know of any technical information which is available
on the 7300?  The manuals I've got are all application level
stuff.
