Anders, Thanks, that's good info.
After looking at the HAL_Documentation again... The answer to my question on adding a second port jumped out at me. I don't know how I missed it many times before. It looks like I want to do this: (add this to my standard_pinout.hal file) loadrt hal_parport cfg="myport#_0 myport#_1 in" My first port will be defaulted to an output type because I did not specify in. My second port will be an in type because I used in after the port number. Does this look right? Can I start using this port after I have done this?
