I've sorted out connecting, detecting and supplying the usename, password
and protocol, but then I seem to receive nonsense.  Well, obviously not
nonsense, its just that I don't know how to interpret the next sequence. 
Is this documented anywhere that an idiot like myself could find, or will I
have to guess?


Cheers

On ftp.demon.co.uk in the directory /pub/doc/rfc you will find
hundereds of documents setting the standards for how the Internet
'works'.

PPP and SLIP (the protocol options) are documented there. For
example PPP is in RFC1661 (as I recall). There is an index in the
directory.
