They were also being very polite in trying not to say that they put a lot of work into the software for their serial board products; and it's a shame that Supra didn't. ("Getting it right" -- The serial.device has so many quirks and bugs that have never been fixed, that many programs depend on them to exist. This makes a serial board for the Amiga hardware-simple, software-difficult. (HSSD? Did I just invent a new buzzword?)) #define SILLY_MODE AWE_JUST_A_LITTLE Perry, that's what you get for being polite. Time to dig out a copy of Emily Postnews :-) #define SILLY_MODE BACK_TO_OUR_REGULARLY_SCHEDULED_INSANITY Oh well. -Tom -- Tom Limoncelli The computer industry should spend more time in front of tlimonce@drew.uucp their computers.
