+Mgetty is a ``smart'' getty replacement, designed to be used with Hayes
+compatible data and data/fax modems.
+
+Mgetty knows about modem initialization, manual modem answering (so your
+modem doesn't answer if the machine isn't ready), UUCP locking (so you can
+use the same device for dial-in and dial-out).
+
+Mgetty provides very extensive logging facilities.
+
+Sendfax sends the named g3 fax files to the fax machine at "phone number".
+The g3 files can be created with pbmtog3(1) or GNU's GhostScript with the
+"digifax" driver.
