Does anyone know how to get data from SER:? I tried using the following -
COPY SER: to "CON:20/20/200/100/My Window"
I had a terminal on the serial line. I could send data to it and read the
data off the screen, but I couldn't get data from the terminal to appear on
the Amiga screen. Any ideas? (Did I see some talk about this go by a while
ago? Or was that something else?

I tried using the following - > > COPY SER: to "CON:20/20/200/100/My Window" The AmigaDOS SER: handler buffers serial input - i.e. it does not pass on single input characters to the serial device, but rather stores up something like 400 chars THEN passes them on. You need something like an AUX handler to get single-char serial input via an AmigaDOS level device. There's an Aux-handler on one of the Fish disks. -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Carolyn Scheppner -- CATS >>Commodore Amiga Technical Support<< UUCP ...{allegra,ihnp4,rutgers}!cbmvax!carolyn PHONE 215-431-9180 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
