Glitch's SBC does have a 5-pin RS-232 connector so maybe hardware handshaking 
is an option with an appropriate cable?

If hardware handshaking is available then AFAIK Hterm will work up to 38,400bd 
with a 5-wire cable.

If H/W handshaking is not available but XON/XOFF is then Telcom will work fine 
up to 19,200bd with a three-wire null modem cable.

If neither handshake version is available then indeed, you'll have to limit 
yourself to a low baud rate, probably 1200 or less, to avoid buffer overflow; 
presumably Hterm could still be useful in this case for its conversion feature.

    Well, that depends... if you can do XON/XOFF handshaking and have a 'real' 
serial port you should be able to do 19,200bd without problems.

    But Hterm is worth looking into anyway; not only can it use hardware 
handshaking, it can also go up to 38,400bd (or more) and can translate UTF & 
ANSII codes.



  He did mention a 3-wire capable. HTERM won't work.

  For his 8085 machine TELCOM with XON/XOFF (it the host supports it) may be 
the ticket.

  Or just a low baud rate.
