I just selected the terminal window. As soon as it opened and without me
typing anything, the save dialog appeared. So, I saved it and I am using
it in place of my old login script. I had a look at it and it's just a
dummy. ORIGIATE, DELAY, PAUSE and EXIT. About 12 lines in all, including
the error trap.

I guess I can just unckeck the "Connect to a command line host" checkbox
and do away with my dummy script.

I do have my username and password entered in the PPP control panel. The
TA came with very limited photocopied instructions for the Mac and a Mac
TA driver. The instruction booklet is all PC and Windows (as per usual).
