    Thanks for the replies about hooking up to the DEC.
I have pursauded the superusers to let me have write access on the port without
being on the root.
They are also helping out by building the needed cable to connect the odd DEC
port to the 48.
    I have another question, though. I did the on/d test to see what model I
had(E gladly) and was seeing
what the other keys did in this mode, that is after pressing <delete> key. Most
give addresses I think, but
the <spc> key when pressed made the hex #'s scroll at high speed and the I/O
icon blinked quickly, with 
the only way to stop was to on/c. Does anyone know what the purpose of this is?
						Thanks, Bill
