It does toggle DTR but does not transmit data. I haven't found a workaround, unfortunately. Minicom is a much better program than Seyon, IMHO. -- John -- John Goerzen, programmer and owner | Use #10 for your Win95 CD: it makes | Communications Centre, Goessel, KS | an excellent cupholder. | Main e-mail: jgoerzen@complete.org | #11: Nice decorations 2 hang on wall|
