Hi folks,

Is there anyone who has experience with directly controlling the
printerport for control purposes? I want to use the port to switch single
lines, without affecting the printerfunction, so the standard Write command
or a direct DOS character write is out of the question. I can find examples
in C and BASIC, but none in (Turbo) Pascal. In line assembly is fine with
me, as long as I can understand it (simple routines).

Sjaak.
