+.B -V
+Request that the \fIchat\fR script be executed in a stderr verbose
+mode. The \fIchat\fR program will then log all text received from the
+modem and the output strings which it sends to the stderr device. This
+device is usually the local console at the station running the chat or
+pppd program. This option will not work properly if the stderr is
+redirected to the /dev/null locaiton as is the case should pppd be run
+in the 'detached' mode. In that case, use the '-v' option to record
+the session on the SYSLOG device.

.B script
If the script is not specified in a file with the \fI-f\fR option then
the script is included as parameters to the \fIchat\fR program.
