35116SN/ATip can be configured in a number of ways:
45116SN/A
55116SN/AACU's:
65116SN/A-----
75116SN/A
85116SN/AACU				Define in makefile
95116SN/A--------------------		---------------
105116SN/ABIZCOMP 1022, 1031		BIZ1022, BIZ1031
115116SN/ADEC DF02-AC, DF03-AC		DF02, DF03
125116SN/ADEC DN-11/Able Quadracall	DN11
135116SN/AVentel				VENTEL
145116SN/AVadic 831			V831
155116SN/A
165116SN/ANew ACU's may be added by editing the ACU description table
175116SN/Ain acutab.c and writing a ``driver''.
185116SN/A
195116SN/AACU usage can be monitored by defining ACULOG in the makefile.
205116SN/AIf this is done and no phone numbers should appear in the
215116SN/Alog file, define PRISTINE in the makefile.
225116SN/A
235116SN/AVariables:
245116SN/A---------
255116SN/A
265116SN/ATip's internal workings revolve around a set of (possibly)
275116SN/Auser defined variables.  These are statically initialized
285116SN/Ain vars.c, and from the remote file.
295116SN/A
305116SN/ANote that adding or deleting variables requires tip to be completedly
315116SN/Arecompiled, as indexes into the variable table are used to avoid
325116SN/Aexpensive lookups.  These defines are set in tip.h.
335116SN/A
345116SN/ACommands:
355116SN/A--------
365116SN/A
375116SN/AThe command dispatch table is defined in cmdtab.c.  Commands
385116SN/Amay have attributes such as EXPerimental and PRIVileged (only
395116SN/Aroot may execute).

45Recent changes about Jan 82 
46
47A new, improved version of tip is now available.  The most important
48addition is the capacility to specify a phone number with tip.  The
49default baud rate is 1200.  To use it do:
50
51	tip phone-number
52or
53	tip -300 phone-number
54
55for 300 baud.
56
57A ~^Z command has been added to tip as well.
58
59A new cu program is available that interfaces to the tip program.
60It attempts to give the same user interface as cu but it is really
61the tip program so you have all the advantages of tip.  This allows
62cu (actually tip) to search for a free ACU instead of having the
63user specify which one he wants.
