(I think TTY's were > 10 cps?) R-e-a-l-l-y s-l-o-w. And don't forget that carriage-return takes longer than printing individual characters, so you need to send CR LF to give it time to get back to the first column while it's feeding a line. Or CR CR LF just in case. (Or was that the Olivetti terminal? Or the DECwriter? One of those mechanical things anyway.) -- George D M Ross MSc PhD CEng MBCS CITP, University of Edinburgh, School of Informatics, 10 Crichton Street, Edinburgh, Scotland, EH8 9AB Mail: gdmr at inf.ed.ac.uk Voice: 0131 650 5147 Fax: 0131 650 6899 PGP: 1024D/AD758CC5 B91E D430 1E0D 5883 EF6A 426C B676 5C2B AD75 8CC5 The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
