Hello all.

    I need to know how (and if possible I suppose) to use the game port
from an Apple 2e for input and output.  The actual use will be (hopefully)   
to simply control a pin (pick a pin, any pin) whether it is high or low
and to test a pin (pick a different pin, any different pin) to read whether
it is high or low.

    This needs to be done from AppleBasic (there is some assembly running
amok in this program so if nothing else, I could try my hand at AppleAssembly)

Is this possible and if so, how?  There is relative urgence behind the mere
feasibility of this project so please, Email what you know now, regardless
of whether it would be more helpful after you dug out that back issue of
AppleAnswers. :-)

Also, please do email instead of posting as I do not frequent this group
and the way finals look, I may not see the light of day for awhile...


Thanks, very very much.
