The parity variable defaulted to 'even', which apparently the Vax did not digest very well. I set it to 'none', which probably also implied, 8 bits, as opposed to 'even' which probably implies 7 bits. Remember: Forewarned is forearmed. Hope you found these little tid-bits digestable. -- Lazer Danzinger UUCP: {decvax|allegra|ihnp4|linus|utcsri}!utzoo!mnetor!lazer ARPA: mnetor!lazer@seismo.css.gov BELL: +1 416 475 8980 ext. 323
