Thanks to everyone that answered my question of text drawing at speeds greater
than 1200baud.  I will check these routes out and see how well they work.


What I would really like to know now is how many of you have tried to write to
the screen  in local mode (not connected to a modem or other serial device)
at speeds faster than 2400baud?

What we are doing at Ultimatum Software is writing a BBS program (in addition
to the terminal program I mentioned in my last post)...and personally I would
like the Mac to print to my screen faster than 2400 baud.  I think some where
around 9600 baud would be nice.

Do you use the same tricks, or is there something else you would do for the
special local mode case?   I am sure that this seems trivial to most of you,
but any help you can give me will cut down on our development time.  Our
Ultimate objective is go beyond simple text on the screen, BUT first we would
like to get the text working at high speeds.  Thanks for all the comments.
