Hello All!
I wrote a quick and dirty little (actually, medium sized, with the 
documentation) script used for dialing with a calling card or credit card.  
The timing sequence is correct for everyone using TTI National as their 
calling card provider.  You'll probably have to tinker with it to make it 
work with your carrier.  NOTE: If you use an AmeriVox calling card, you have 
timing easy.  Simply substitute "dw" (no "") for the commas in the script and 
your timing will work perfectly, as AmeriVox provides dial tones when you 
need to dial your card number and then to dial the number to access.
Also, the script sets your modem for commas to have a three second delay.  If 
you need to, modify the line that has ats8=3 in it, where the three is the 
number of seconds the modem should wait on a comma.  (It may differ for your 
modem).
(NOTICE: This script should work with Telemate 4.12 AND 4.2.  However, it 
seems to have trouble for no apparent reason on some computers.)
Let me know what you think.  I'll be making improvements to it, i.e. adding 
color, having configurable menus so you can have different pairs of access 
#/card # in a seperate file to pick from instead of them being hard coded 
into the script or you having to enter them every time.
Enough gab.  On with the script:
