Hello there. I am writing a BBS in AmigaBasic (yuck! :) ) and have actually gotten the I/O to work at a semi-respectable pace. What I need to know, however, is how to read the status of the carrier detect line. Right now the software hangs up after a timeout, but I would prefer an instant disconnect upon loss of carrier. Is there some way I can interface with the serial device from basic so I can read its status line? Any help would be MUCH MUCH MUCH appreciated! +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Bob Richardson (or, for you UNIX buffs: bob@jacobs.cs.orst.edu) | | 220 NW 21st, Corvallis, OR 97330 503-758-5018 "We Never Open" | +---------------------------------------------------------------------+ | PLEASE NOTE NEW NETWORK NAME ABOVE (was richarr@nikola).
