There is a FreeBSD port of soundmodem. I have never tried it. Perhaps it can be made to run (or ported cleanly) to OS X. It is a complete userland version, doesn't apparently depend on the linux kernel. http://www.baycom.org/~tom/ham/soundmodem/ http://www.freshports.org/comms/soundmodem/ There are quite a number of FreeBSD-specific patches in the ports tree, so it's not a "untar, configure, run" operation. The patches may be viewed at http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/ports/comms/soundmodem/ in the "files" directory. Perhaps a savvy Mac OS X user can adapt this to that system. I doubt it would be a quicky, but it probably can be done since it is already done for FreeBSD (on which OS X is at least partly based). -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM In some cultures what I do would be considered normal. -- Ineffective daily affirmation _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
