# Here is a suggestion for an additional open routine for the chat2.pl
# library. It duplicates a user file handle to make it conform to the chat
# format. This makes it possible to use chat2 together with programs that
# duplicates stdin and stdout for their own input, e.g. the ~C option of

#
# I started using chat2.pl recently but found that it would not work
# correctly across one of our dial-up PPP interfaces (using ftplib.pl). 
# The following very simple patch does not change the default behaviour
# but adds a function that can be used to select an alternate origin
# name and address.
