I am looking for a small LCD terminal (preferably backlit) say in the range of 2 to 4 rows by 40 to 80 columns, with an RS-232 int- erface. The application is a remote data terminal for the operator of an overboard instrument array. Luke Coletti M.B.A.R.I. colu@hp850.mbari.org

I don't remember the exact issues, they were within the last 6 months, but Dr. Dobbs ran a two-issue series on the software design of just such a terminal. I am sure that the company contact was listed at the end of the articles. You could contact the company from there. ======================================================================== Kevin P.

Winchester, Olathe, KS 66062, telephone 913-829-0600. The cost is around $300. I've used these, and they work pretty well. They advertise in BYTE if you want to have a look at them. Have fun, Dan (danr@irie.ais.org)
