Talking to my local Apple dealer doesn't give me much help as they haven't received most of what has been hinted at in the Magazines. I need a good Telecomunications program and a Wor processor since my old Apple Writer II won't work. An any suggestions on Pascal or C software so I can access all the features. By the way has anyone found a source of serial port plugs Apple hasn't seen fit to make a cable that will run to my Hayes Smartmodem and the IEEE manual says I'll need to Jumper the RS422 to RS232. Any one out there done it yet I've done it with Full 422 on a Dec System but nut fully confident about the apple port. Any and all comments and suggestions welcome
