- by reading between the lines, I suspect that you are doing this under MS-DOS -
- if so, you should ask in a newsgroup dedicated to MS-DOS, such as
- comp.os.msdos.programmer, since the C language doens't know about MS-DOS
- interrupts, or PC com ports.
-
- Also (or first) try to find the FAQ for that group, probably available by
- anonymous ftp from rtfm.mit.edu.
-
- You may have to directly attack the UART baud rate divisor registers to get
- speeds above 9600.
