+Atinout is a program that will execute AT commands in sequence and
+capture the response from the modem.
+
+Minimum example:
+
+ $echo AT | atinout - /dev/ttyS0 -
+ AT
+ OK
+ $
+
+See the manual for more details on operation.
+
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+If you have not yet read the ITU V.250 specification about AT commands,
+by all means go to http://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-V.250-200307-I/en and
+do so right away. This is a must have document when processing AT
+commands.
+
+The absolute authoritative source of information about how AT commands
+behave for a given phone is the manufacturers documentation. That will
+cover standardized commands (with potential divergence) as well as
+proprietary commands.
+
+The second most authoritative source of information about how AT commands
+behave for a give phone is the official standard documents, e.g. V.250,
+27.005, 27.007 etc.
+
+No matter how nice random guide you have found on the web, never
+threat such as an authoritative source on AT commands. Get hold of the
+authoritative sources as described above and use those to check for syntax
+and behavior.
