That's not as bad as my current kludge. I've scrapped an IDE cable and I
very nearly have a DEQNA cable made out of it.

Almighty kludge (I did once do something similar) : Take a cable with a
10 pin header socket at each end, wired pin-pin. Sodler single-strand
wire to each pin of the DE9. Push the bared ends of the wires into the
right holes of one of the header sockets, the other socket goes on the board.
If you need mroe comples interconnecitons -- pins
joined together, etc,
you cna always use one of those solderles breadboards (for all I moan
about them, they will work here).

There are two mutually incompatible common pinouts for those connectors,
and 10*9! (factorial) possible pinouts.
Isn't 10*9! = 10!?
