: Chat by itself cannot do the redialing, but you can handle this using a
: shell script instead of a single call to chat as your connect script.

I wish I knew that before I wrote one.  It depends on exactly what you
are trying to do.  If you just want to redial once on a busy signal you
can ignore the BUSY signal and let it time out.  I've attached an editted
version of my script.  However, if you need a more complicate script then,
chat by itself isn't sufficient.

ABORT NO\sDIALTONE
'' ATZ OK ATDT91234567
CONNECT-\dATDT91234578-CONNECT '' ogin: me assword: mypassword

You will see that there is no "ABORT BUSY".
