Well sorry, I called it the wrong thing.
Anyway, regretably, I am not having any luck getting it working. :-(
I am now working on a Blitz version as the code is so simple.
Though, I would like to get it working with AREXX too. :-) Just for an
excercise.
I guess it would be better to say if I press enter on my terminal program
the DMM then sends me a line of data.
Oh, if anyone is keen to help me, remember it is 7 bit data. I am getting a
lot of grief in Blitz about that, as I can't find a way to change the data
length. :-(
