I have used a fue comm programs under linux, and tried to find some for
FreeBSD. I finally found pcomm, it was for linux, but did not compile I saw
something in the Makefile, about BSD so I tried it on a BSD machine at
work, no success. It complains about no term.h (what it will complain about
after this is fixed I do not know). Since I have a need for a comm program
that can run scripts at night pcomm seamed to be perfect, it can (from the
man page), I have tried minicom, for linux but this has to be connected
before any scripts can be executed. Can someone port pcomm to BSD??
or has anyone done it all ready? This will be of interest to me, since I
have no UUCP,SLIP connections, and they will not put one up.
If it is a matter of time, I will also pay for the port (hope this is not
to comershal for News), please give me a response by Email.
If a comm program exists, that will do the job for me I will be happy to
here of it.
Please forgive my English, I am from Norway
