The following is a general purpose READ file for placing calls
via Telenet.   It assumes that the PREFIX is null (PREFIX "") and
that the SUFFIX is a RETURN (SUFFIX "^M").  These are the default
values on my system.   I've named this file CALLTO.MEX  The local
Telenet number is in the PHONE list. It is invoked by:
READ CALLTO <AREA CODE> <NUMBER> [<CAPTURE FILE>]

                                      (remarks not part of file)

    STAT WTECHO OFF                  not needed, just slows us
    STAT WECHO 1                     fast for initial call-up
    STAT REPLY 1
    STAT RETRY 1
    SENDOUT "ATM0"                   to silence modem
    DIAL TELENET
    SENDOUT "^M"                     two returns go get started
    SENDOUT ""                       respond to TERMINAL=
    SENDOUT "C DIAL{1}//12,YOURID"   respond to @
    STAT WECHO 4                     slow down for packets
    SENDOUT "PASSWORD"               your password, of course
    SENDOUT "ATZ"
    SENDOUT "ATDT{2}"
    T {3:CAPTURE.NEW}

For frequently called numbers a dedicated file can be created by
copying the CALLTO file, and then filling in parameters 1, 2 and
3.  My file to call the Net-exchange BBS (NEX.MEX) is

    STAT CRC ON         set CRC/CHECKSUM to match bbs
    STAT WTECHO OFF
    STAT WECHO 1
    STAT REPLY 1
    STAT RETRY 1
    SENDOUT "ATM0"
    DIAL TELENET
    SENDOUT "^M"
    SENDOUT ""
    SENDOUT "C DIAL202//12,YOURID"
    STAT WECHO 4
    SENDOUT "PASSWORD"
    SENDOUT "ATZ"
    SENDOUT "ATDT6893561"
    T {1:CAPTURE.NEX}   option to specify different capture file

Thats all there is to it.  Have fun.
