Okay....
Now I'm thinking that there are really two phases / modes of
communications: 1) computer to modem commands, and 2) computer to
computer via modem connection data.
I think my previous statement applies to #2. I can see the value in #1
being more liberal in what it recognizes and accepts.
But, I'd still be surprised if the following would work for #2.
[A]---(7E2)---{modem}==={modem}---(8N1)---[B]
Would A and B be able to transfer data between each other with different
(local) settings?
