The kde address book has a slot for a call to a script to do this.
It's more to do with handing back to a microphone instead of establishing a data connection. You can use kermit, cu or minicom to dial but it's getting control back that can be awkward. http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/02/msg01114.html http://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2004/02/msg02368.html You can also just try: echo ATDT > /dev/modem echo AT01234 567890 > /dev/modem You need echo ATZ > /dev/modem to reset the modem or it won't connect next time. This also worked on Windows, I remember many times having a locked modem that disabled certain applications that wanted to send orders by modem. I got quite used to echo ATZ > com1 :-)
I can now successfully dial out with ATDP, pick up the telephone handset and talk (I talked to myself on a cell phone - such fun). But I'd still like to be able to pass it as a command line argument from within kaddressbook since that was the point of all this.
