Can someone tell me whether the modem7 program does anything smart when
in the CONTROL-Y mode (buffering incoming characters in memory) when
the memory gets full? Some programs send an X-OFF while they write to
disk. I suspect that nothing useful happens. Would this be a useful
mod? Sometimes I must download long (>64K) files from remote mainframes
which do not have "modem" capability, but who use X-ON/X-OFF.
