The suggestions I have seen so far don't hack it.  PIP will redirect INPUT,
maybe (on a lucky day, anyway), but he wants to redirect OUTPUT.

I suppose he could hook his K10 up to his KII and use a terminal program
on the recieving Kaypro to capture the data.

I seem to recall someone posting or commmenting about a program that would
do what Craig is asking for, but it MAY have been for IBM-PC style systems
(sorry).  Was there such a posting HERE, or was I dreaming?  Can anyone
REALLY help craig?
