[] Does anyone have a termcap entry for an Apple ][e running the extended memory, 80-col card? Please mail directly to me (I imagine this is the nth time someone has requested this.) Also, someone complained in private mail that the above card is too slow for effective 1200 baud use. Does anyone else have any experience with this card at 1200 baud? I briefly glanced at the Rom listing for the card and it does look slow for page scrolling. -- Mike Eve Boeing Aerospace, Seattle ...uw-beaver!ssc-vax!ssc-bee!eve

Does anyone else > have any experience with this card at 1200 baud? Yes, interrupts are locked out for too long and characters can be lost during scrolling. This is a bug in the firmware and can only be avoided by using your own 80-column code that is more careful about the duration of "critical regions".
