Can anyone answer the following questions: 1) Is it possible to read characters from the serial ports before the operating system gets hold of them. ie., I want to write a desk accessory which inspects the characters coming in off the serial port, before passing them onto a terminal emulator. 2) Can a DA `find out' where a terminal emulator has located its input buffer. If I can do this, I may not need to do 1) above. 3) Does anyone know where there is technical information on writing FKEYs. thanks Julian

don't quote me on anything, least of all this topic but... I think fkey's are just 68000 instructions, hexed of course, stuffed into an fkey resource. (that's TYPE = FKEY). dave brosius
