        !            14: .IR tip (1C)
        !            15: program.  This file is normally unreadable, and so may contain
        !            16: privileged information.  The format of the file is a series of lines
        !            17: of the form: <system-name>[\ \et]*<phone-number>.  The system name is

        !            21: characters terminated only by ``,'' or the end of the line.
        !            22: The ``='' and ``*'' characters are
        !            23: indicators to the auto call units to pause and wait for a second dial
        !            24: tone (when going through an exchange).  The ``='' is required by the
