It works quite well. To simplify things, I added the two '+'-marked lines to com.c in comspeed(): else if (speed < 0) return(-1); + if (speed == 50) speed = 57600; + if (speed == 75) speed = 115200; x = divrnd(COMTIK,speed); This way I can just tell tip, slattach, etc. that I want to connect at 50 or 75 bps, but I get 57.6k and 115.2k respectively. -Dan dmuntz@citi.umich.edu
