--- SNIP ---

I solved the problem I was having getting sendpage to work properly.
The cause of the problem was in the above lines.  The correct
configuration is below.

PagerSetupCmds: ATE0B0S37=5N0W2
IXOService:	PG
IXODeviceID:	1

The problem was occuring when the pager terminal was asking for the
service and device ID.  The config man page showed both parameters
with ``'' around them.  When sendpage sent the information to the
terminal it was sending ``PG''``1'' instead of PG1.  Upon removing the
quote characters it worked perfectly.  Now to tackle the fax end of
the software. ;-)
