  C'mon L.T.C.  write one for us!!     We all know good you are with graphics,
and I dont think anyone disputes you are a very capable 816 programmer, so
why not give it a try!    -No really, how hard could it be? The protocol is
preaty standard, and there is plenty of available documentation on it.
I think some of the cheesier Fax programs only recieve computer generated
fax's and display it with eg:TrueType fonts.!   seems simple enough...
he hee hee!
