Subject: What is MTN

MTN 1.3 is a modem program written for the Z80 and designed to run
under CP/M with up and download capabilities and auto-dial modem
control.  It has many dynamically changeable options, such as Modem
(internal DCHayes or PMMI, or external), Dial/Redial/Hangup, Record
ON/OFF, Write to disk, Xmit from disk using wait-for-LF-echo, Flow
control for input (XON/XOFF or none), Binary or Text mode record or
transmittion of files, half or fullduplex, 10 soft keys with up to 31
characters per key, status report of settings and buffer state,
interactive mode to set each mode, and "built-in" help documentation.
There is also a startup customization sequence which will let you
predefine these modes and keys and save that version to run later.

Since I wrote that version and released it for free, Lifeboat came out
with BSTMS for $200, which is very similar, but will run on an
8080/Z80 machine.  Meanwhile, bug reports and feature requests have
been coming in, and a new version of MTN is currently being written
and debugged with old bugs fixed and several new features implemented.

For the rest of the details, read MC:CPM;MTN DOC.
