TinyTERM does not pass on modem error messages received via TAPI. This makes it difficult to determine what’s happening when a modem connection fails. For example:
- Dial a known busy number. (It’s easiest to call the same line TinyTERM is using to dial.) You can hear the modem dial and get a busy signal, but TinyTERM displays no errors. It shows as disconnected the whole time, though a “busy” message should pop up.
- Dial a line and don’t answer it. You’ll hear the modem dial and the line ringing. TinyTERM shows as disconnected until it hangs up. The expected “no answer” message doesn’t come up.
CR 757, fixed in TinyTERM 4.65
