I'm no expert, Paul, but the Supra has hardware flow control capability (RTS/CTS) which most telecomm software will let you use. The receiving modem must be capable of this. Most modems and software on other platforms uses software flow control (XON/XOFF) — again, so I'm told. The buffer itself isn't "smart" — it just gives the computer time to catch up if it falls behind.
