I recently posted two news articles requesting information about NEC chips,
the 102 key keyboard, and TP 5.0.  Our system went down right after I posted
the articles and when it came we received a mail message from another site
several times because the mail went into an infinite loop.  When the mail was
cleaned up I might have lost any replies that any you happened to send to me
so can you please resend them.  Basically my questions were if there were any
other NEC chips besides the v20 and v30?  How compatable are they?  What is the
difference between the v20 and the v30?  How can I compile a file with TP 5.0
so that it can be turned into a .com file?  I am blind so I can't read the
manual because Borland hasn't got them finished on disk yet.  Also has anyone
out there had any experience with Zoom modems, award AT bios, or Segate st125
drives?  I have all of these things and I want to know how good they are.  My
modem is a 2400 baud and my Bios is version 3.03.  Finally I have an extra
key between my left alt and ctrl key.  Is there a way I can access this key?
I want to use it in Prokey macros or to replace the Left-shift right-shift key
conbination of a TSR program that I have.  Can someone mail me the source code
to do this or better yet source code that will allow Prokey to access this
combination with in a macro.  I have Prokey 4.0.  Thanks!!
