PallasI've never actually tested it on the USR Password I use, but on a REAL Hayes modem, the +++ sequence must be preceded and followed by a full second (default, is adjustable, I think) of no data to prevent just this sort of confusion. If the USR/Apple doesn't do this, then Apple has screwed up. Probably the people writing MacTerminal use a real Hayes, since it's so much better (personal opinion, of course); that might explain why MacTerminal doesn't do some of the things that it wouldn't have to do if you were using a Hayes instead of a USR/Apple. joe ------- Return-Path: Received: from CMU-CS-SPICE.ARPA by SUMEX-AIM.ARPA with TCP; Thu 9 Aug 84 14:51:15-PDT Date: Thursday, 9 August 1984 17:46:12 EDT From: Thomas.Newton@cmu-cs-spice.arpa To: Joseph I.Pallas cc: info-mac@sumex-aim.arpa Subject: Re: Apparent MacTerminal BUG Message-ID: <1984.8.9.21.41.53.Thomas.Newton@cmu-cs-spice.arpa> According to the manual for my USR Autodial, it also requires a full second of silence before and after the sequence. Although the length is fixed, you can change the "+++" to any other sequence of three identical characters. -- tdn
