I have what I think is a real live bug in MicroPhone II. I have two versions: a "pre-release" version dated May 20, 1988 and a "real" version dated June 27, 1988. With the LATER version, it appears that the "system flag" is not being set correctly between modem and user scripts: it always returns success. Situation: I have a modem driver that I put together for a DEC Scholar. The script (modem) "Dial Service" returns success or failure depending on the status of the call. Problem is, the user script that is calling Dial Service ALWAYS sees success. I have verified that the Dial Service script IS returning the correct status (failure, in this case). By the way, the "system flag" is transfered correctly between user mode scripts as well as between modem scripts; the problem occurs when mixing user mode and modem scripts. Now, for the fun part: these IDENTICAL scripts work perfectly with the May 20, 1988 version! So, how is VersaTerm, anyway? 1/2 :-) Any insight? Thanks - Rich
