Rumor has it that Fred Cisin (XenoSoft) may have mentioned these words:
But how do I lobotomize that silly
"HYPER-TERMINAL" app in Windoze95 to
convince it that I do NOT want it to dial, wait for carriertone, etc.?
I've found the best way to force HyperTerminal to do this is tell it to
dial a stupid number like "876" and when it starts out to dial, just click
cancel. it knocks you back to the terminal screen, but leaves the
connection to the com port open.
Or, do as I do: grab your trusty Tandy 200 with the attitude of "Screw
WinBlows - this works better!"
Hope this helps,
