hi folx, i am programming a mailbox in tp 5.0 i looked around to find some good serial routines, and i found async. my problem is (or rather was) that when i called a external programm and a fossil driver was in memory the mailbox hung, when the external program was ended. now i am using different routines which uses directly the fossil. now i can call external programms without getting into trouble. but my problem is, when i lock the baudrate at 19.200 baud (i have a new hst-ds) and enable flow-control (cts/rts handshake) for the fossil driver, that when users send a string very fast (e.g. with function keys etc) over the line, only every second char is recognized :-( but when i have called the online-game tradewars everything works fine. so i don't want to call tradwars everytime a user loggs in :-) the routines i am using only allow baudrates up to 19.200 baud. anyone who has (better/other) routines ? anyone out there who can help or is programming serial routines for a fossil driver? any help is appreciated. tnx in advance. please mail to my fido address: Martin Herbst of 2:241/2007 or to my Usenet/Internet address: hunzer@omo.hanse.de c u martin -- Martin Herbst =8-D Sub/Usenet: hunzer@omo.hanse.de + [49] (0)40 87 35 14 (voice) Fido : Martin Herbst of 2:241/2007 + [49] (0)40 87 67 33 (v32bis,HST) Artnet : HUNZER@OMO W-2000 HH 55 / Suelld.
