What is included in the software that HP provides for the Mac to HP connection? Except Kermit that is. I assume that there is something to translate GROBs to some Mac graphics format. What else? I don't want to throw in an extra $60 for the cable and software package, but I want to get the full benefits of the ability to connect my mac and HP, both of which I use incessantly. Could some kind soul describe the software that HP provides and give their opinion on its usefulness. Also, how difficult would it be to program the portions of the HP software myself (except for Kermit, of course)? Has anyone developed anything of this sort? I have MPW Pascal and C compilers on my SE/30, but I am not a superb programmer by any means, especially when dealing with the Mac interface. Thanks in advance for any help that anyone might provide. jess@mn.ecn.purdue.edu jess@gn.ecn.purdue.edu

You can find _everything_ that comes in the kit on the HP bbs ( (Internet HPCVBBS>CV (Telnet HPCVBBS.CV.HP.COM) in the conference KERMIT.PROGRASM (that is, PROGRMA, oops, I can't spell _or_ figure out how to bakcspace, but I'm sure you know what I mean). Anyhow, I think the files are attached to the message MAC.SERIEL or something like that.
