This option sounded as the most simple one. In Win98se (using Hyperterminal) as well as in Linux (using minicom) I got exactly the same (unsatisfactory) result: when I type some characters on the MSX keyboard, they show up on the PC, but not vice versa. I can also let Erix send an ASCII file which also shows up on the PC terminal window, again in Linux as well as in Win98. But that's all. In Erix I use default/MSX/ANSI as terminal parameters, and I use 115200-8N1 as interface parameters in every com program mentioned. I have tried every protocol. Should I specify modem commands? And if so, which? And if not, what could I be doing wrong?
