Can anyone tell me how to set even parity on a Kaypro with a Incomm 2400 baud modem. I'm running Mex+ and when I use the set parity even command I can no longer talk to the modem port. I suspect that this is merely changing the way which Mex talks to the port but not the port itself. When I log onto the fed's netserver at no parity (it expects even) I can still send SOME characters but half are filtered. I can send most of the alphabet (half uppercase, the rest lower). I'd tell the server to set no parity, but the equal sign is blocked. When I use Mex+ to set even parity I can't even issue an AT command and switching after the connection doesn't help either. rgds-- TA (fed!m1tca00)

The Kaypro patch has been checked extensively, and does the right thing when it comes to messing with the baud rate and comm mode. If you want a copy, it's available on the server here: put the following lines in mail sent to pallio!rna (rna%pallio.uucp@xait.xerox.com) /send help to your_address /send index to your_address that will get sone info on the server, and this line /send qterm to your_address will send a copy of qterm. Note that in all cases, 'your_address' should be replaced by either a bang path from a backbone site, or an Internet style address (user@host.domain). If you need the kaypro patch, I can send that out, but the general collection of patches isn't available yet since I'm still upgrading some from the V4.1e days. -- dg@pallio.UUCP - David Goodenough +---+ IHS | +-+-+ ..... !harvard!xait!pallio!dg +-+-+ | AKA: dg%pallio.uucp@xait.xerox.com +---+
