unhd (Jonathan W Miner) (10/19/90)
I would like to thank everyone who responded to my orginal post. Parapharsing myself: > I want to communicate with my modem through COM1, but nothing seems > to work. Here is what I learned: 1. MSDOS an ROM BIOS does not support serial ports. 2. The standard C FILE* does not work on serial (bi-directional) communications 3. The best solution is to use communication libraries Check SIMTEL20. Also thanks to Frank Whaley (few@quad1.quad.com) who sent me code for an interrupt driven i/o package. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Jonathan Miner | I don't speak for UNH, and UNH does not jwm775@unhd.unh.edu | speak for me!
