.SH DESCRIPTION
The

file
is a 201 data-phone interface.
.I Read
and
.I write
calls

are limited to a maximum of 512 bytes.
Each write call is sent as a single record.
Seven bits from each byte
are written along with an eighth odd parity
bit.
The sync must be user supplied.
Each read call returns characters received from a
