{Communications routines for TURBO Pascal written by Alan Bishop
 Handles standart COM1: ports with interrupt handling.  Includes
 support for only one port, and with no overflow, parity, or other
 such checking.  However, even some of the best communication programs
 don't do this anyway, and I never use it.  If you make modifications,
 please send me a copy if you have a simple way of doing it (CIS EMAIL,
 Usenet, MCI Mail, etc)  Hope these are useful.
