[comp.sys.mac.comm] Mac/gnuucp hanging.

odell@bu-it.bu.edu (Jim O'Dell) (10/25/90)

It has recently come to my attention that Mac/gnuucp doesn't handle the
Mac serial ports correctly. It seems to be that on some modems the program
simply hangs the whole machine when run.

I would like to correct the code in the program to avoid this rather
umseemly behavior but I'll need some help. Does anyone know the 
correct calls to open the Mac serial lines? Is there a sample program
I can use to copy from?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

P.S.
A simple code fragment would be most useful. I'll put it into v 3.x
before I mail it out.
