   Why are you wanting to resurrect something like that when there's much    
   better alternatives out there already that are free?  I don't understand    
   spending time and energy on that.   
      
   I can think of several programs: Qodem (which is a workalike of the    
   original Qmodem), Syncterm, Netrunner, mTel, Zap-O-Comm (ZOC; not cheap    
   but has been around for decades), and others that I can't think of right    
   now.   
      
   I use Qodem under Window and Linux.  Under OS/2, I use Livewire which is    
   OS-specific.
