My question is, if i want to make a program like a bbs or nice terminal program, if i try to figure out what term.c is doing, i'm sort of getting that, slowly, but when i go to wanting to write my own, I'm lost. Do I have to write functions for checking com port and baud and all that like in term.c, or do I have that covered with serio.o when i compile it also, I assume i don't have to use, for example sio(port) for the port number, or do i? would another veriable work just fine or do i have to basically follow what was in term.c as you can probably tell, i am confused to say the least ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- mvan __ __ ____ ___ ___ ____ mvan AT primenet DOT com /__)/__) / / / / /_ /\ / /_ / / / \ / / / / /__ / \/ /___ / -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
