Would you like a few "RS232 Smart Cable"s?
They obviously do not work anywhere near as well as a conscious human

Thanks; I wasn't sure if I'd seen them or not. I suppose a "not
awfully smart" cable that consisted of a multipole double-throw
switch would work about as well.
If I need to, use one of my little jumper blocks (DB25F and DB25M and
spaghetti inbetween) to fix any DTE/DCE conflicts (I also have DB25F-
DB25F and DB25M-DB25M "straight through) jumpers to resolve gender
issues).
