Enclosed is the script that I use to toggle MacPPP between
open and closed and write a log containing the date, beginning time, ending
time, and minutes connected (rounding up) to a tab deliminated text file. The
script can be edited and I commented everything I could think of in the
script so there's no read me file other than that.

A couple of notes: This script requires MacPPP Control (1.2 is what I'm
using) to open and close the PPP connections. It also requires the Read/Write
Commands osax as shipped with AppleScript 1.1. PowerMac users may experience
difficulties with version 1.1 of this osax (this was fixed with version
1.1.1 shipping with System 7.5). MacPPP Control and a beta of Read/Write
Commands 1.1.1 is available from the Mac Scripting site at:
