When setting up a modem connection in TERM or TinyTERM, do not use any country or area code options offered by the operating system. Instead, enter the entire phone number just as you would dial it from a standard telephone. For example, if it’s long distance in the United States, include the leading 1 and area code.

You can use dashes to separate the numbers for readability, but they are not required. To add a two-second pause, such as you might need when dialing 9 to get an outside number, enter a comma in the phone number:

9,1-801-268-3088

CR 89, country code usage added to TinyTERM 4.20
