I am looking for an implementation of at least a subset of the MNP
protocols.  The MNP protocols are normally implemented in modem firmware
(ROM built into the modem).  I have heard that there are implementation of
MNP for MS-DOS machines that allow using parts of MNP with non-MNP modems.
Does anyone know of a similiar item for the Macintosh?  Ideally it would
run as an init and allow a non-MNP modem to be used with any standard
Macintosh terminal emulator.

By the way, various levels of MNP perform error detection and correction
as well as data compression.  With MNP you can get error free (between the
modems) modem communications at higher data transfer rates than normal.
