I uploaded another version from a different board, but I don't think it got out. For some reason, my posts from that board rarely do. This one is more reliable, anyway. I tested the last one (using the INT 17 initialize printer function) on my other system (happens to be a Tandy 1000TX; that may say something) and it would not set an error bit with nothing at all hooked to the printer port. This one, at least, works on both of my systems. By the way, I forgot something. If ya use the thing, flatter me and give me an itsy bitsy little credit. Other than that, use it any way you want...I personally guarantee none of it came from anyone else's work; I don't have time to read anymore...|-} --- * Origin: RadioLink!
