We have a TCP connection server running on various UNIX boxes here,
and we want to be able to connect to it from a TI. In terms of
actually getting the connection and moving data on it, we have that
mostly solved. The last sticking point is that certain special
characters (primarily linefeed) are not the same on either end. The
UNIX linefeed ends up as a delta on the TI, and the TI linefeed shows
up as an ASCII 141 (cr with the high bit set). We tried using
:characters :ascii with ip:open-stream, but that maps TI linefeed into
UNIX cr / lf, and what we want is a one to one mapping, TI linefeed
<-> UNIX linefeed. Can anyone give us any clue as to the easiest way
to do this? Thanks.
