I've got a few questions about C-Power that I know have been discussed
here in the past, but I never needed the answers, so they weren't saved.
So if anyone can answer any of these for me, I'd appreciate it:

1) First, and most simply, what's the current status of C-Power. Version
   number, company name, etc? I bought mine about 3 years ago and I think
   I remember the rights being sold or something like that. Is that BBS
   still running for bugs, etc?

2) From C-Power I need to read/write to the rs-232 port. I think it would
   probably be easiest to just do the whole thing through the sys()
   function (I don't care how portable this code is). But does anyone
   have a cleaner way?

3) I plan on merging my C object files with a lot of assembly object files
   created by the C-Assem assembler posted here a few years back. Can any-
   one explain how the parameters are passed to a function so I can access
   them in the assembly?

Thanks for any help.
