Your options as far as hardware are set correctly, from what you've said. But his end is stripping nl (line feeds) and your end isn't inserting them. That's filtering that's going on in the comm program that isn't related to parity, etc. Different programs handle it differently. Yours expects the linefeeds to be transmitted, while his expects yours to insert them after CRs. It is usually an option that can be set with most comm programs. Does that help? -- Michael Sierchio @ MCC Software Technology Program UUCP: ut-sally!im4u!milano!sierchio ARPA: sierchio@mcc.ARPA THE OPINIONS EXPRESSED AREN'T NECESSARILY.
