.LeapIn and .LeapOut would get you the internal modem on all
machines which Apple says is capable of running MacOS X (this entry
is only present if the modem is available) , it won't work for
earlier machines such as the first powerbook g3, or the beige g3
tower with 2 serial ports.
In any event you should always open .aIn and .aOut (just drop in
to Macsbug and type drvr to get the correct case...) since
.LeapIn/.LeapOut is patched into the driver open call and will work
properly on a machine where .aIn really points to the modem.

I remember a while back, I got help with how to identify which serial port
was actually an IrDA port. ( by identifying the serial port with
input/output drivers named ".IrIn" / ".IrOut"
Now I need to know how to identify which serial port is the Internal Modem.
the input / output driver name for the Internal Modem on my machine is
".LeapIn" / ".LeapOut"
is this constant on all macs?
Testing for these driver names is about as reliable as testing for
".IrIn"/".IrOut". We've never documented that this technique will
work, but it's the best solution I know of.
