Excerpts from author's comments [uploader's in brackets]:
This program is extremely broken. [No, mildly broken and way cool.] This program should let you control most Sony products.
The VCR stuff hasn't worked for me yet. [nor me]
The CD player, Tape Deck, Television, Amplifier and I think Tuner definitely work, but not neccesarily completely, or for that matter very well. [tuner & amp pretty well]
If you let the Newton go to sleep while you are using the remote control, you will have to quit the program and run it again. [no, it's fine for me]
There was a bug report that it had to be stored on the internal memory on a 110 to get it to work. [not on mine]
The source code is available from my macintosh. Mail me if you would like it. You are welcome to do further work on it and I would be very happy to see it become a useful product with some sort of plug in architecture for different devices using Auto Parts ...Share and Enjoy and you really like it, you can send me a postcard.
