flexfax: Would like to write about vgetty and egetty

["Julio C. Spinelli" <spine001@gold.tc.umn.edu>]

Rob,

Could I get from you or somewhere else a bore bones example of using egetty to just detect a fax call. I don't mean 
really detecting it, but a shell that does nothing but returns "2" so that faxgetty answers the call as fax.

I have attempted to do so myself, and everything works but after egetty returns and faxgetty starts answering a fax 
call, we get a modem write error, the error is coming from a call to the Sys::write(fd, ... function.

Here is the tracing of these events, If you could help me I would like to clarify this subject for good.

Thanks in advance,

Julio Spinelli
