modemu2k is a fork of modemu, originally developed by Toru Egashira
(Travis Build status
<https://travis-ci.org/theimpossibleastronaut/modemu2k>)
What is modemu2k?
---------------
modemu2k adds telnet capability to a comm program. It can redirect
telnet I/O to a pty so that a comm program can handle the pty as a tty
with a real modem, and allows you to use a comm program's scripting
and file transfer features over telnet.

For Translators
-----------
We use Transifex to translate the output messages. To start translating
modemu2k, create an account in Transifex and ask to join a translation
team (or create a new one) at
https://www.transifex.com/na-309/modemu2k/
Compilation
-----------
./configure
Use ./configure --help to see extra options
make
`make install` is optional. The binary can be run from the src/
directory. (installation is required to use the translations.)
Making SOCKSified or Termified Modemu2k may require changes to
src/Makefile.am.
Sample Usage
------------
Note: while in the program if backspace doesn't work, use CTRL+H.
1) Stand alone usage
Invoked with no option,
modemu2k
modemu2k reads from standard input and writes to standard output.
Input
> atd"localhost
(prompt ">" is not shown) You will see your host's login prompt
(if a server is running). When you disconnect, you will get "NO
CARRIER" indication. Then input
> at%q
to quit modemu2k.
2) With a comm program
(This example uses minicom as the comm program)
Invoke with "-c" option,
modemu2k -e "AT%B0=1%B1=1&W" -c "minicom -l -tansi -con -p %s"
From within the comm program, if you have a server running, you can enter
atd"localhost
to connect. You could also connect to a BBS. Here's a list of
telnet-enabled bulletin board systems: <http://www.synchro.net/sbbslist.html>
To quit modemu2k, just quit the comm program.
(*) Almost all file xfer protocols require 8bit through connection,
which means Modemu2k must be in the binary transmission mode. See %B
command description in the man page.

A man page is also available.
