Annotation of 42BSD/usr.bin/tip/README, revision 1.1

1.1     ! root        1: Tip can be configured in a number of ways:
        !             2: 
        !             3: ACU's:
        !             4: -----
        !             5: 
        !             6: ACU                            Define in makefile
        !             7: --------------------           ---------------
        !             8: BIZCOMP 1022, 1031             BIZ1022, BIZ1031
        !             9: DEC DF02-AC, DF03-AC           DF02, DF03
        !            10: DEC DN-11/Able Quadracall      DN11
        !            11: Ventel                         VENTEL
        !            12: Vadic 831                      V831
        !            13: 
        !            14: New ACU's may be added by editing the ACU description table
        !            15: in acutab.c and writing a ``driver''.
        !            16: 
        !            17: ACU usage can be monitored by defining ACULOG in the makefile.
        !            18: If this is done and no phone numbers should appear in the
        !            19: log file, define PRISTINE in the makefile.
        !            20: 
        !            21: Variables:
        !            22: ---------
        !            23: 
        !            24: Tip's internal workings revolve around a set of (possibly)
        !            25: user defined variables.  These are statically initialized
        !            26: in vars.c, and from the remote file.
        !            27: 
        !            28: Note that adding or deleting variables requires tip to be completedly
        !            29: recompiled, as indexes into the variable table are used to avoid
        !            30: expensive lookups.  These defines are set in tip.h.
        !            31: 
        !            32: Commands:
        !            33: --------
        !            34: 
        !            35: The command dispatch table is defined in cmdtab.c.  Commands
        !            36: may have attributes such as EXPerimental and PRIVileged (only
        !            37: root may execute).
        !            38: 
        !            39: 
        !            40: 
        !            41: --------------------------------------------------------------------------
        !            42: 
        !            43: Recent changes about Jan 82 
        !            44: 
        !            45: A new, improved version of tip is now available.  The most important
        !            46: addition is the capacility to specify a phone number with tip.  The
        !            47: default baud rate is 1200.  To use it do:
        !            48: 
        !            49:        tip phone-number
        !            50: or
        !            51:        tip -300 phone-number
        !            52: 
        !            53: for 300 baud.
        !            54: 
        !            55: A ~^Z command has been added to tip as well.
        !            56: 
        !            57: A new cu program is available that interfaces to the tip program.
        !            58: It attempts to give the same user interface as cu but it is really
        !            59: the tip program so you have all the advantages of tip.  This allows
        !            60: cu (actually tip) to search for a free ACU instead of having the
        !            61: user specify which one he wants.
