On the practical (soldering) side: it's easier to use one of those
"jumper box" intermediary adapters.
Fraser's scheme seems simply enough:
twist between each pins: 2 x 15
3 x 13
4 x 12
5 x 10
6 x 11
connect straight pins: 16, 17, 25
(For those who followed the Tandy-100 thread: at the time there were
"all sorts of" accoustic couplers, each with different pin connections
to twist - so I soldered on one of these jumper boxes some rows of dip
switches which gave nearly all possible combinations. That "switchbox"
still serves now.)
Great info !
Now comes the QUESTION: do comm progs allow to use the parallel ports ?!
Or the other way roun: Which progs allow (what sort of) parallel port
use ?!
