For "cu", I thought the right thing was to create a file in /etc/uucp
called "port", containing something like
port mymodem
type modem
device /dev/tty00
speed 38400
This tells cu that it has to do the appropriate clocal/-clocal processing
itself. Then you can either type "cu -l tty00" or "cu -p mymodem" to connect.
It's a bit hard to find this out since the Taylor UUCP info files don't get
installed anywhere, and in fact, I think are removed from the source tree.
