Script question

[Oliver Ob]

Hello Lx Mgetty friends!!!

Now, that I am back, I would like to hear your inspiration on this:

I have been running a BBS.

What I want to do now is have a script (or perl???) dial
out (means send ATDT xxxxxxxxxxxx) command and then wait
for response.

In case there is no response or so it should receive the
error (maybe "BUSY" or "NO CARRIER") from modem and log it
to a log file.

How do I approach this?
Use Mgetty?
Or anything else?

Any friendly pointers appreciated!
