  I've figured out where OSTerm v2.0.8 "cheats" and have changed it to call
some routines I've tacked onto the end.  These routines depend on a driver that
supports the enhanced SS.ComSt call (which returns 6551 style DSR+DCD status
info in the [B] register), such as DACIA/SACIA and most of the RiBBS supporting
drivers.  This allows the auto-dialer and some other functions to work fully,
no matter what serial hardware is used.
  I have put together an ARChive containing the IPatch file and brief
instructions, and uploaded it here.  Look for "O208IP.ARC" in the telcom (7)
data library.  DeArc is required to extract the files from the ARChive, and Bob
Santy's IPatch utility (from "PATCH.AR") is also required.
