Here is a procedure to create a autolog
file for Vidtex and a Hayes modem or
it's manny clones. The purpose of this
file is to continually redial a number
untill you are connected. It may be
used with CIS or any Board where you
frequently encounter a busy number. It
is not for the CBM 1650 Modem. It is
rather crude but it works.

Please note that where you see a "*" it
stands for the "English Pounds" key and
where you see a "<-" it stands for the
Left Arrow key.
