Default setup file is UNITERM.SET.  (Default phone number file is
UNITERM.TEL.) For stopping autodial, note that in some versions of
Uniterm the 'retry count' set in the phone-number list is actually a
'try' count, and 0 means try forever.  If it is hanging, try setting
retries to 1.  To forcibly stop an autodial, use control-C.  Far as
buffers go, one of the things saved in your setup is your buffer
sizes.  Uniterm allots your memory to buffer uses *statically* when you
start it up.  Check the BUFFERS sub-menu in the SETTINGS menu to see
how much space you have alloted for history.  Adjust to taste, and
save.
