1[See NEWS file for much more up-to-date information] 2 3Tip can be configured in a number of ways: 4 5ACU's: 6----- 7 8New ACU's may be added by editing the ACU description table 9in acutab.c and writing a ``driver''. 10 11ACU usage can be monitored by defining ACULOG in the makefile. 12If this is done and no phone numbers should appear in the 13log file, define PRISTINE in the makefile. 14 15Variables: 16--------- 17 18Tip's internal workings revolve around a set of (possibly) 19user defined variables. These are statically initialized 20in vars.c, and from the remote file. 21 22Note that adding or deleting variables requires tip to be completedly 23recompiled, as indexes into the variable table are used to avoid 24expensive lookups. These defines are set in tip.h. 25 26Commands: 27-------- 28 29The command dispatch table is defined in cmdtab.c. Commands 30may have attributes such as EXPerimental and PRIVileged (only 31root may execute). 32 33 34 35-------------------------------------------------------------------------- 36 37Recent changes about Jan 82 38 39A new, improved version of tip is now available. The most important 40addition is the capacility to specify a phone number with tip. The 41default baud rate is 1200. To use it do: 42 43 tip phone-number 44or 45 tip -300 phone-number 46 47for 300 baud. 48 49A ~^Z command has been added to tip as well. 50 51A new cu program is available that interfaces to the tip program. 52It attempts to give the same user interface as cu but it is really 53the tip program so you have all the advantages of tip. This allows 54cu (actually tip) to search for a free ACU instead of having the 55user specify which one he wants. 56
