Thanks for putting them into good use!  I wrote them about a year ago for
an Inter-Library Loan Network program-- as my first attempt at assembly 
on a PC!  I'm more than happy to share any program that I write...

Hmmm.  That's interesting.  I have used these routines at 9600 baud without
any problems, but have never tested them at high speeds.  I guess that I will
soon as I am not satisfied with any VT100/220/etc emulator on the PD market--
and need speeds as high as 38400 baud...  

BTW.  Is there anywhere that I can get the official specs for VT100/220/etc
terminals?  I'll be sure to tell you all when the term emulator is done...

Ok...  Geez, does it show that the routines and documentation was a little
hastily put together?  Thanks.  I'll place your additions in what I have
here-- for consistancy sake...

>Again, public thanks to David! A fine piece of work he posted.

Your welcome.  I'm glad they are being put to use (with someone other than
librarians running on Apple II's at 1200 baud).
