to avoid buffering.

Mr. Skulski, that one is WAY out of my league. grin. I've done interfaces to
various devices in embedded systems, but there was never a stinkin' OS
in the way.
I've heard that Microsoft device driver kits are a very steep learning
curve, and
I believe it.


Mr. Campbell, *POOF*. I "fix" your problem by posting a question. lol But, I
seem to remember a complaint you had when posting to some forum/list that
Blackbox has a dowdy interface and has poor search facilities. With regard to
the latter, would you like to see a find/search/replace capability
closer to that of
Textpad?
(You must have used Textpad in the past because, unless I'm mistaken,
you supplied
the component pascal syntax highlighting to that community).
That is one I might wanna tackle.
