Now that more people have more experience with HyperCard, I'll ask this again. Is it possible to make the "dial with modem" command use an arbitrary command prefix, not the "ATSO=" that Hayes-compatibles like? My Novation SmartCat wants a %d <number>, although it can be commanded to change the excape character from '%' to anything else. So far I haven't been able to get it to accept anything from HyperCard and I haven't found anyone who either has tried or knows. Thanks. I'll post a summary of responses if there's interest. -- Paul Suhler suhler@im4u.UTEXAS.EDU 512-474-9517/471-3903

Other than those I don't know of any way to do it. -nazgul P.S. They also include drivers for a number of different CD-ROM systems! -- ### {mit-erl,yale,uw-beaver}!apollo!nazgul ### apollo!nazgul@eddie.mit.edu ### ### pro-angmar!nazgul@pro-sol.cts.com ### nazgul@apollo.com ### ### (617) 641-3722 300/1200/2400 ### ### I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's.

My If I recall, the dial with modem command could take an optional modem string that replaces the default string. I just looked it up in Goodman- some exammples are dial xxx-xxxx with modem "ATDP" (pulse dial) dial msg with modem "ATDTS7=1LO" etc. this is also in the help stack. --ron beloin@batcomputer.tn.cornell.edu
