After reading your response to James Fields about concerns in using the bar code port as a possible serial port, and the fact that it probably won't fly, and then remarking about the parallel port, I've got a question. (nice run-on sentence, huh?) Is it possible to use the parallel port to access an external serial device and subsequently the TPDD via a DOS, redirected to access through the parallel port as it does through the serial port? If so, could PowerDOS be modified to direct its calls to the parallel port? We might be onto something here... -Rick-
