For those of us using commo for a terminal program with the latest
release, this will be of interest.  Just passing it along.

Subject: MOSTHOST Corrections

To all {COMMO} users:

Please note that the MOSTHOST host macro included in Release 7.6
does not work properly.  There are two problems:

  1. The host will not answer the phone.  To fix this, add a
     carriage return ("|") to the "_anscmd" variable defined in
     COMMO.SET.  It should then look like this:

      {set _anscmd,ATA|}     Modem Answer Command

  2. Pressing the Escape key on the host machine will not terminate
     the host macro properly.  This is not a problem if you don't
     press the Escape key (you can just log off if necessary), but
     to fix it look for the following line near the beginning of the
     host macro:

        {SETE WF3}

     Change this line to:

        {SETE WF4}

Thanks to David Rife for discovering these problems.  I will
probably have a follow-up release with these and other minor
corrections in the near future.
