Asterix stuff is a bit to heavy.
Xringd will sense rings and can run scripts. So a simple script to open the
modem so I can speak using the headset and then hang up when I am done?
Mgetty and vgetty will also answer rings. Mgetty is looking for fax or data.
All I want to do is talk and listen. Vgetty can be set up as an answering
machine. This is cool but I want to pick up the phone and talk if I am at the
computer.
