From: Walter.Smith@CMU-CS-SPICE Radio Shack sells a very nice thing to use if you are trying to make a modem cable. It is called a "joystick extension cable", and consists of a six-foot cable with nice molded DB-9's on the ends. Cut off the female DB-9, attach a male DB-25 (also available at R.S.), and there's your cable. I will post the colors to use if I get around to taking the hood off of my DB-25, but a few minutes with an ohmmeter will reveal the proper conductors to use. - Walter Smith (wrs@cmu-cs-spice)
