- Can anyone direct me to some information on how to read in from the parallel
- ports? I have seen it in a book, and I think you have to go directly to the
- hardware and program the port controller, but I don't know exactly how. Has
- anyone written a program to do this? I would like to use the parallel ports
- as 8 bit (bi-directional) data busses to external devices.
