- Since I had a number of requests to justify a posting, mgetty has
- been posted on alt.sources.
-
- From the README file:
-
- > Mgetty is a getty replacement, programmable via Tcl scripts, for lines
- > hooked to a DCE. Tcl is a language written by John Ousterhout, that
- > within mgetty let you do what you want with ttys and modems without
- > writing complex C code, at least for the trivial actions.
- >
- > Mgetty is modular for two reasons: it is built around Tcl, which is
- > itself a modular script language (you can add, delete, and rewrite
- > commands in terms of C functions); it needs some external program to
- > perform some advanced action (like fax receiving, voice playing and
- > recording).
-
- I hope you like it, and if it's so, please send me any bug report, fix
- or suggestion.
