Would someone PLEASE mail me some sort of instructions for using the GS/OS
Modem Driver from C (ORCA/C)? I'm in the midst of reinventing the wheel for
school (640x200x4/16 text and line grafix term). I'm going to talk a friend
into doing the same from GW BASIC on a Tandy. Thanx!

Well, if the modem driver had a fixed name like .MODEM you would be able to issue an fopen(".modem", "rwb") or something like that. I just checked with SysInfo and mine calls itself .DEV6 instead. The GS/OS reference (out in stores! caltech bookstore got it and I snarfed one already -- good bye beta binder) explains the application side of things. It is fairly easy to write generic C functions that act as interfaces to the O/S (I can give you sample code if you'd like), but I haven't done anything with character devices yet, to be honest. Jawaid, you listening? Surely your experience from 'TelCom program of the Gods' can help this person? Todd Whitesel toddpw @ tybalt.caltech.edu
