Good point, but are you sure about the source of the "CONNECT" message?  
On my setup it comes from my local modem on a connection, not from my 
ISP, and it's dependent upon the modem INIT string I've used.  I could 
choose to have my modem respond with numeric codes instead of text 
strings, and this would have to be expected in my CHAT script.

Also, logging in with something like Zterm and saving the output works.
