I'll be looking at comms coding at some point, but more important is making sure that I can run legacy arcane protocols- hence my interest in DOSemu, which is good enough to run things like EPROM blasters. Does anybody use libusb-win32? If so could I have a copy of the unpacked binaries- I've got NT4 systems here which do have USB low-level drivers but the installer insists on NT5 and I don't want to start working out how to rebuild them. -- Mark Morgan Lloyd markMLl .AT. telemetry.co .DOT. uk [Opinions above are the author's, not those of his employers or colleagues] _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lazarus.freepascal.org http://www.lazarus.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/lazarus
