My grandfather has a friend who owns a teletype for the deaf.  TTD, I
guess, is the acronym.  He is considering purchasing a computer
terminal or small home micro so that he can speak with her.  Does
anyone know of the compatibility situation between RS-232 and whatever
protocol the TTD uses?  Is the TTD a computer or a terminal, or what?
What is the minimum configuration, in terms of phone equipment and
hardware, that is necessary to speak with one?

Please mail to me and I'll post a summary.
