I am posting this for a friend but please respond to wesley@sequent.com. Does anyone know of a way (program/driver) to output RS-232 ASCII data files from the serial port to run a RS-232 output device. He needs ASCII data file as output. THANKS, Wesley G.

This will output the file that you specify to the serial port. -- Bruce Hall Domain: bhall@pbs.org Public Broadcasting Service UUCP:...{uupsi,vrdxhq,csed-1,ida.org}!pbs!bhall Phone: 703/739-5048 "Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes" - Oscar Wilde
