Good point. I did a bit of Googling earlier but couldn't find a reference that
showed how to send the plain text on a fax/modem. It's been a few years
since I used that mode and it was a small DOS command line utility that
did the work once you gave it a number to call and the text file's name.
I just found the "ssfaxer" program in an old backup directory. A Google on
that term shows a few hits. That may be the place to start.
