Im posting this for my father... I have myself an amiga, but he uses c64, because he likes electronics and builds things for it, and... He bought this Microline printer(used&cheap), that he can connect to the rs232c port(well, the almost rs232cport), but he wants it at the serial port instead, and he thought of building a buffer thing, a little circuit that picks up bytes from the serialport, and sends them on as an rs232c signal. He knows that this is - possible - shooting the sparrow with a cannon(i.e. lots of work to achieve a relatively "little" thing). So if anybody had allready done a hack like this, he would like to hear about it, and also he would like to hear opinions about it(that it would be stupid to do it, etc.) -- From the notorious Jakob Gaardsted, Computer Science Department Bed og arbejd !
