What "off-topic BS" has there been in THIS thread?
Or, is ANYTHING other than the answer to one specific current problem
"off-topic BS"?
discussion of appropriate tools?
discussion of procedures to determine an answer?
'twould seem that so far, this thread has been as technical as the
original request, and on-topic for this list, even if people were
interested in the TOPIC, not just stating the answer to this specific
problem.
We apologize for the technical discussion of fishing V giving him a fish
for his Sun Ultra.
Oh, well. Build a man a fire, he will be warm for the night; set a man
on-fire, he will be warm for the rest of his life.
I'm not even sure that I would agree with your "off-ropic BS" valuation if
I were to have looked up and reported the details of a known FATALITY from
the frustration of RS232 interfacing.

Hahaha. Exactly. and that any off-topic BS always takes precedence over
real technical problems. Of course. :) Amid the extensive discussions about RS-232 you
may have missed the fact
that I solved my problem.
And you may have missed the fact that this conversation has evolved into
a theoretical discussion. ;)
Peace... Sridhar
