Crossed neurons, as usual.  I meant to say the Prometheus Promodem; I
originally looked at the Practical Peripherals modem, but the folks I spoke to
at P.P. claim that they ship with "Microphone v1.5".  This does not sound very
much like Microphone II 3.0, so I decided to get the ProModem.

+---------------

Many people seem to be misunderstanding the question I asked.  Keyboard
macros, etc. are methods used in various Mac communications programs to
implement the function keys found on most terminals.  I was asking which, if
any, of those methods was used in Macknowledge.

I guess I'll have to wait until the package gets here next week and check the
manual.
