My customer is looking for a device driver package for a modem
containing a C interface for controlling the modem from a C program.
ANSWER
The functionality that the customer is looking for is currently
contained in AIX. AIX treats a modem as a generic TTY device. As
a result, modems can be controled through the standard TTY device
driver. In order to control the modem with a C program, the customer
will need to use C functions to access the TTY device driver. This
is done though a series of ioctl() calls to the TTY device driver.
The ioctl calls and related structures necessary to do this are
documented in 'Writing a Device Driver for AIX Version 3.2' Chapter 5,
'The TTY Subsystem' (GG24-3629-01).
