 HOW REPEATED DIALING WORKS

 When Telix has one or more numbers to dial, it redials repeat-
 edly until a connection is made. To keep you informed of the
 status of the redial Telix displays a status window, and
 alerts you when a connection is established. The status window
 is similar to the figure below.

 +-| Redial --------------------------------------------------+
 |                                                            |
 | Redial started at 20:15:33    Press: T to change dial time |
 | Attempt #10       20:19:27           D to delete from list |
 |                                                            |
 | This attempt: Dialing My Favorite BBS ... 22               |
 |       number: 967-1111                                     |
 | Last Attempt: Busy                                         |
 |                                                            |
 |     Press Space to cycle to next number, Esc to exit.      |
 +------------------------------------------------------------+

 Information included in the status window is the time redial
 was started, the time the current attempt was started, the
 status of the last attempt, the status of the current attempt,
 and a countdown timer for the current attempt.

 If you are dialing all the marked entries with the dialing di-
 rectory 'Dial' command, when a connection is reached, the mark
 is taken off the entry connected to, so that when you later
 select the 'Dial' function again, only the remaining entries
 are dialed. If you are dialing a list of entries selected with
 the 'List' dialing directory command, when a connection is es-
 tablished the entry connected to is taken out of the list, so
 that when you later select the 'Redial' command from the dial-
 ing directory or the Alt-Q command from terminal mode, only
 the remaining entries will be shown.

 While redialing, you have the option of changing the time that
 Telix waits for a connection, and also the option of deleting
 a number from the list to dial, by pressing 'T' and 'D'
 respectively.

 Normally, when a connection has been reached, Telix sounds an
 alarm to alert you of this. If a script file is linked to the
 entry however, the alarm is skipped so that the script may im-
 mediately proceed. It is thus the responsibility of the linked
 script to alert the user of the fact that a connection has
 been reached.

 Pressing Alt-Q while in the terminal mode or selecting 'Redial
 last' from the dialing directory menu will allow you to redial
 one or more numbers that you entered previously using the
 'List' command, so that you do not have to re-enter them. You
 will be shown the list and asked to edit it until you are sat-
 isfied, and then to press Return.
