[B. Scott Andersen]

Regarding Keyspan serial interface troubles with MacOS X:

We need to find another program (or even two or more programs) that
also have trouble with serial communications under MacOS X. If we
can show it is not related to a single application then they might
be more interested.

I might have a program that controls a telescope I could try (I don't
know if it is out for MacOS X yet...) and I could also try setting up
a regular serial line between the Mac and a PC or other UNIX workstation.
I'd then Kermit or XMODEM some files back and forth to see if there is
a problem. [If I can remember how to do all this!] Other folks could try
this, too.

On the other front, perhaps Mr. Argo could ask Keyspan for some sample
code they use to drive their own devices. There is a (very small) chance
that Keyspan is testing with something set (buffer sizes increased, etc.)
that MacLoggerDX has not set up. While I believe it unlikely that this
could be fixed by something on "our" end, if it COULD be fixed on our
end we are likely to get a fix much, much sooner!

Just my 2-cents.
