There are a number of programs for linux with a class 1 or 2 fax modem.
One fairly easy one(to install) is efax. It requires gs and some of the
ppm cvt utilities for viewing/sending and comes with a simple shell
script so you can say fax letter.txt and it converts it and sends the
file.

The text looks very nice! I faxed it to my other computer and it is very
crisp text.

Good luck
