I'll probably do something about it (I'll build up my first test-computer with 2 ISDN-cards this afternoon), but without any support from the developers I don't have much hope. I *have* hacked other programs programs like Emacs before, but only because I had an idea where to look at. What I whished from you would have been a hint in which part of i4b my problem is caused and how it may be solved. All I got from you is a nice comment like "I don't have your problem, so I don't care". Sorry, but that's not very satisfying for me. I have a bit experience with the way bugs are handled by the Emacs-, gcc- and Samba-developers and all of them are usually interested in fixing bugs. My question to you: do you want to write an ISDN-package that fits for *your* needs, or do you want to build a general-purpose package? If you don't care for my problems, I would have to do everything on my own and that would be probably way to time consuming for me.
