Unfortunately for me, ATI6 just dutifully reports, "OK" - on-line
help doesn't know what it is.  ATI11 reports "ERROR".  In my case
I think the closest is ATI10 which reports all manner of statistics (not as
specific as yours I see, but more detailed "global usage" stats),
most of which I think are wrong.

BTEE doesn't support "AfterCall" either so I can't try that ..
hang on, lemme check something .. okay, I've just called Redmond,
Washington USA (ie., Vince Perriello's system) .. twice no less (fucking
USR HST shits - how on earth do you explain a 14,400bps *V.FC* connect with
a modem that doesn't do V.FC?!).  In Vince's own words:

    "BinkleyTerm 2.60 is not yet out."

No shit.

    "The released version of BinkleyTerm (version 2.50)..."

Is ancient.  And the Europeans who did the EE version won't release the
source code.  Bastards.  BinkleyTerm 2.59a is still the latest - wide beta
for DOS and OS/2, alpha for Windows NT.

Vince doesn't have a "files" listing.  Prick.  Works at Microsoft
apparently.  Or did.

To be honest I think Bink is dead.  Seriously, like Msgedsq was.  Vince has
no intention of ever releasing another version.  Maybe he did, one day -
but not anymore.

 BG> I'd be very surprised if the modems hadn't shifted up to 28800.

I'd be inclined to agree with this:

# 27 Jan 13:45:57 BINK Connect 26400/Lap-M/V.42Bis/V.34
[...]
+ 27 Jan 13:46:05 BINK CPS: 3351 (10053 bytes)  Efficiency: 126%
[...]
+ 27 Jan 13:46:17 BINK CPS: 3080 (33889 bytes)  Efficiency: 116%

10Kb and 33Kb aren't exactly huge files, but they're "large
enough" not to be sent in a packet or two (thereby screwing up the
stats), and they were already compressed (ZIP) too, so it's not the V.42bis
weaving its magic.  Only a 38,400bps serial port.

Cheers..
