However, please don't ANYONE write any kind of loaded serial port/card drivers without contacting DTS first. We're trying to work out some specifications for such things so that all such drivers will work alike. That way, if you have two programs that were written using two different serial drivers, they should both work with whatever driver you have installed. (Switching drivers requires activating one, deactivating the other and rebooting the system. We're trying to avoid having to go through this just to switch programs that were written with different drivers.) -- ============================================================================ Matt Deatherage, Apple Computer, Inc. | "The opinions represented here are Developer Technical Support, Apple II | not necessarily those of Apple Group.
