     And I have a weird printer with a not-quite-standard Centronics
port hooked up and turned off. (I had to alter a standard cable to make
it work... anybody know why Tandy would output +5VDC on what is SUPPOSED
to be a ground? It's a Tandy DWP-230 that I've got emulating an IBM 
Wheelwriter - Tandy mode was buggy.) 
     I think this might do it; I'll check it out tonight. Thanks.
                                                     - R'ykandar.
