	frank,  we've been having a lot of dead and dying 1200 baud modems
	here recently.  of COURSE there aren't enough then.  result is
	an all too common hour wait while you re-dial about eight billion
	times.  i too impatient for that, so i cobbled up a little
	dialer routine.  it follows, if i can get csnet's send routine to
	take it.  claim that it's good c, but it does work.

	takes the system here about 10-12 secs to answer and get modems 
	talking, so i've found 13 seconds for carrier wait on the hayes
	is enoughve reliability.  it's dialed over 100 times reliably
	till it ganswer.  set it up to send \r's to get the network
	here to autobaud then exec the program.  since i usually have
	several versions of kermit in test, it's nice to be able to select
	the program to be exec'd.  thought that someone else without a 
	dialing version of kermit might find it useful too.

	i've got several comments to the recent discussion, but haven't been
	able to get csnet's mailer to take the file.  i'll get them to
	you some way.

	also, is there a way for up poor people without direct arpa con-
	nections to get at the new kermit files via direct dial-up?

	the dialer follows if i can get send to take it....
