I figured that out last night (duh!) but it does not work quite like bnu.sys or bnu.com. I would like to find a TSR or a device driver type system. Now from reading the manual on how it works. do I set it up like this, its only an example rlfossil parameters.... c:\nerf.bat whereas c:\nerf.bat is the actual batch file that runs maximus and the handling of external doors. Its a carry over from when I ran opus 1.73a (I would still have used opus if it was y2k compliant, which it is NOT!) Since we are talking a batch file and not a .exe or .com. would I need to fire it up like so: rlfossil parameters c:\command -c c:\nerf.bat What I would rather do is invoke it like I do bnu.sys in my config.sys file or at the very least like bnu.com in my autoexec.bat file. What other fossils or com port emulators that are Msdos native are out there? I am talking 16 bit here, Not Windows 9x or later. I have checked my nightly CVS compiles of the Linux maximus and it can't find two entries which I am going to ask about in muffin. If they fix those mites, I might be able to run maximus on linux after all. B'ichela ... Beware of programmers that carry screwdrivers!!! --- blueMail/Linux 0.11
