I don't know much about the auto dialer requirements but I would think you
could start with modem:

Mac
open file "modem:"
write "ATZ" to file "modem:"
write "ATDT8008895555" to file "modem:"
 --- in the docs where you write, read, etc

Win uses com1:

To set the port parameters (such as baud rate, handshaking, and parity), set
the serialControlString property before opening the port with the open file
command.

To read data from the modem port, use the read from file command, specifying
the keyword modem: as the file to read from.

Looks like it might do the job.
