format of L.sys file

The Unix-PC/3b1 manuals suck.  They're barely better than no
manuals at all.  I use my Motorola Sys V Reference Card more than
the damn manuals.  Unfortunately, I'm running unix-pc release 3.0,
so the card doesn't always work.

So, here's a couple of questions that my manuals don't answer:
(Somebody could just email me a complete man page.... :-)

1. What's the *full* time/day allowed syntax?  I know that Any
and Any2300-0500 work, but what if I want any time Sat/sun and 2300-0500
on Mon-Fri?

2. What does /r and /d mean?  People tell me to put this in my L.sys
so I can call their system, I do it, and it works.  But what do
they do?

3. If a system I call has more than one phone number, do I have
to have multiple L.sys entries for that machine?

4. What codes/commands can I insert into the phone number?  Ie:
say I want to dial a phone number, wait for a tone, enter a LD
code number, wait for a tone, then dial the number of the system.
Can I do this?


Email me, unless you think it relevant to the net as a whole.
