Hi,

For some odd nostalgic reason I have started to play around with

Microsoft basic 2.0 on my old (512k) Mac. I'm particularly interested

in any capabilities it has to drive the serial ports for good old

serial communications, however I dont have any reference materials

that describe how to go about it.

I purchased a rather good guide to MS Basic from amazon, but although

its a good reference on how to write code and covers many aspects of

the platform, it doesnt cover serial comms.

I see there are several other old MS Basic for Mac books I could buy,

but I've got no idea if any of them will cover the information I want

either.

So, I was wondering if anyone could either point me to an online

resource, or name a book (if anyone can remember that far back :) )

that contains information on how to do serial comms in MS Basic 2.0

for Mac.

Cheers,
