Rather than buying an 850 interface and saving myself a tremendous amount of trouble, I instead got a device called the R-Term serial interface. Essentially, it just plugs into the Atari serial port and converts what is there up to RS-232 signal levels (and back). The problem is that the manufacturer included only a very feeble device handler for the R-Term that is similar but not identical to the driver used with the 850. The result is that packages like VT-10^2 and other terminal emulators just don't work very well. Has anyone out there come across a device driver for the serial port that is accessible to the standard terminal emulating programs? -Dave Hysell DLH@PSUECL (go lions)
