      1  1.1  cgd Tip can be configured in a number of ways:
      2  1.1  cgd 
      3  1.1  cgd ACU's:
      4  1.1  cgd -----
      5  1.1  cgd 
      6  1.1  cgd ACU				Define in makefile
      7  1.1  cgd --------------------		---------------
      8  1.1  cgd BIZCOMP 1022, 1031		BIZ1022, BIZ1031
      9  1.1  cgd DEC DF02-AC, DF03-AC		DF02, DF03
     10  1.1  cgd DEC DN-11/Able Quadracall	DN11
     11  1.1  cgd Ventel				VENTEL
     12  1.1  cgd Vadic 831			V831
     13  1.1  cgd 
     14  1.1  cgd New ACU's may be added by editing the ACU description table
     15  1.1  cgd in acutab.c and writing a ``driver''.
     16  1.1  cgd 
     17  1.1  cgd ACU usage can be monitored by defining ACULOG in the makefile.
     18  1.1  cgd If this is done and no phone numbers should appear in the
     19  1.1  cgd log file, define PRISTINE in the makefile.
     20  1.1  cgd 
     21  1.1  cgd Variables:
     22  1.1  cgd ---------
     23  1.1  cgd 
     24  1.1  cgd Tip's internal workings revolve around a set of (possibly)
     25  1.1  cgd user defined variables.  These are statically initialized
     26  1.1  cgd in vars.c, and from the remote file.
     27  1.1  cgd 
     28  1.1  cgd Note that adding or deleting variables requires tip to be completedly
     29  1.1  cgd recompiled, as indexes into the variable table are used to avoid
     30  1.1  cgd expensive lookups.  These defines are set in tip.h.
     31  1.1  cgd 
     32  1.1  cgd Commands:
     33  1.1  cgd --------
     34  1.1  cgd 
     35  1.1  cgd The command dispatch table is defined in cmdtab.c.  Commands
     36  1.1  cgd may have attributes such as EXPerimental and PRIVileged (only
     37  1.1  cgd root may execute).
     38  1.1  cgd 
     39  1.1  cgd 
     40  1.1  cgd 
     41  1.1  cgd --------------------------------------------------------------------------
     42  1.1  cgd 
     43  1.1  cgd Recent changes about Jan 82 
     44  1.1  cgd 
     45  1.1  cgd A new, improved version of tip is now available.  The most important
     46  1.1  cgd addition is the capacility to specify a phone number with tip.  The
     47  1.1  cgd default baud rate is 1200.  To use it do:
     48  1.1  cgd 
     49  1.1  cgd 	tip phone-number
     50  1.1  cgd or
     51  1.1  cgd 	tip -300 phone-number
     52  1.1  cgd 
     53  1.1  cgd for 300 baud.
     54  1.1  cgd 
     55  1.1  cgd A ~^Z command has been added to tip as well.
     56  1.1  cgd 
     57  1.1  cgd A new cu program is available that interfaces to the tip program.
     58  1.1  cgd It attempts to give the same user interface as cu but it is really
     59  1.1  cgd the tip program so you have all the advantages of tip.  This allows
     60  1.1  cgd cu (actually tip) to search for a free ACU instead of having the
     61  1.1  cgd user specify which one he wants.
