It involved a modification to the DOS drive parameter table (if I remember correctly). Unfortunately, I've never hacked into DOS, so I don't know the particulars. You might want to call Caroline Mack of IRUG to obtain the back issue. Her number is 618/632-1 As Always, Paul - --- ConfMail V3.31 * Origin: The Pot of Gold - (703-359-6549) (1:109/103) ------------------------------ Date: 06-04-90 (09:33) To: ALL Subject: RAINBOW KEYBOARD CABLE? From: ANDREW TAYLOR I'm looking for an extra long keyboard cable, and dimly recall mutterings from the distant past to the effect that you can't just use a phone cord for the keyboard cable, even though DEC have gone to great lengths to make it look just like one. True or False? Ideas for where to get a loooong keyboard cable. As ever: Thanks to all! - --- Opus-CBCS 1.12 * Origin: Glacier Peak Rainbow, Bellevue, WA - 206/644-8431 (1:343/3.0) ------------------------------
