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,
