PDial v2.6
~~~~~~~~~~
Changes are: - Config of numbers internal.
- Config of Modem internal.
- Transfer timeout variable.
- Font Sensitivity.
- Modem detection.
- CLI Support.
- Dial from List.
MUI, will maybe, be introduced in the future. For now, you'll just have to
wait and see...
Setting up the QuickDial (TM) numbers:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Configuration is done from the option under "Config", "Numbers" or hot key
RAmiga + N.
To dial the numbers, load PDial, click on the name of your choice and then
click "Dial".
Setting up your Modem.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Config from "Modem" option in menu "Config"
DEVICE - The Modem's driver device (serial.device, 8n1.device)
INIT - Init String for the Modem (ATZ, ATZ&F0 etc.)
PREDIAL - What to put before dialing (ATD usually)
POSTDIAL - What commands to put after dialing (Leave blank usually)
HANGUP - The command for transferring the call to the handset (ATH)
TIMEOUT - Put a tick for a timeout on the transfer to the handset.
If you are not sure what to put, try these:
Device: serial.device Init: ATZ
PreDial: ATD PostDial:
Hangup: ATH Timeout: No
Modem Detection
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When you run the program, PDial will try to detect your modem. If it can't
find your modem, it will say "Modem not responding!". To fix this, make
sure your modem is connected and turned on, then select "Reset Modem" from
the first menu. PDial will then try to redetect your modem.
CLI Support
~~~~~~~~~~~
For all you DOpus and GUIRexx people, I have added CLI support. Create a
bank of buttons under DOpus or whatever, and set them to run in the shell
"PDial xxxxxxx" where is "xxxxx" is your phone number.
PDial will then automatically open, and try to dial out, wait for transfer
and then quit.
DISCLAIMER
~~~~~~~~~~
If this program causes any damage to property/computer/face/fingers etc
I will not be responsable. Ie. If the program does something suprising and
you spill coffee across your keyboard, which causes the monitor to explode
shredding your face with shards of broken tube, It's not my fault.
