Does anyone out there in netland have a Turbo Pascal program for setting
up asynchronous communications on an IBM PC? I am working on a project
which requires that both ports, COM1 and COM2, be opened and operating
concurrently.
Please post to net.sources or reply directly to me at the address below.
Thanks in advance.

In the February '86 edition of "Personal Engineering and Instrumentaion News" There is an article entitled "Pascall calls to DOS, BIOS implement RS232 driver" written in Turbo Pascal. I'm not a Pascal programmer (or much of any other language for that matter) and I don't have the source in machine readable/transmittable form. But you can get it from the author (address listed below) for $20 (it's public domain; the $20 looks like a media/time reimbursement). There is also a note in the article "The listing for ASYNCQC.PAS is also available through the online section of PE&IN with Videolog" but I cannot decipher the meaning of the message. Also, PE&IN is on Compuserve. keith ASYNCQC.PAS source (on 5.25" IBM-PC disk, $20): Quinn-Curtis 49 Highland Ave. Needham MA 02194 Disclaimer: I haven't got the foggiest idea what I'm talking about!!!
