- as sugguested I bought some recent Atari Explorers, and read the articles
- on serial port programming.
-
- Well, i typed in the first "very dumb terminal program"
- and added this line:
- Rsconf(4,0,8,0,-1,-1,-1);
-
- which should be 2400 baud no parity,no handshaking, 1 stop bit.
-
- however, my modem does not respond with an RD light up.
- I changed the Cauxout(c) to Bconout(1,c), that made the RD light up,
- but also the CD as well!
-
- what am I missing?
-
- any help would be apreciated! (source code would be cool!)
-
- Compiled with Sozobon 1.33i, standard Dlibs.
- I ran it from Gulam, and the desktop.
-
- BTW, gulam likes to echo the characters to the screen from a Cconin() why?
-
- thanks!
