That might be worthwhile getting--the Dragon, I mean. As I recall, it has
a parallel port and a REAL 6551 serial port; the way the Coco should have been
made (except I'd add a SCSI port and a RTC, of course).

Actually for a NULL you should type cast 0 to whichever type you are
using. For example, setbuf(stdin,0); should be setbuf(stdin, (char *)0);
BTW, the ASCII name for 0 is NUL not NULL.

I'm not familar with "type casting"... why do you have to use
a pointer or is "*" a pointer? I assume this only works for ANSI C not
K&R C. "setbuf(stdin,0)" does work.

I will have to try out GNUCHESS on my Gwindows. I have had no

Did you get permission from Carl Kreider to post the source on Ar? I
contacted him in October of last year about an OS9000 port to be done by one
of the members of the San Diego User Group. Here is his reply I recieved on
6 Oct 93 00:26:34:
My correspondence would indicate that there is some interest in this. I
don't have the time right now, although I do have OS/9000. Be warned
that it is not trivial. ar has been ported to Unix, Vax/VMS, and MSDOS,
so it surely can be done. I took a quick look and there are enough
changes to the file system that one can't simply save the file
descriptor, the way ar for OS9/68K does. Instead, you have to make a
translator that permutes one into the other. There will be some
ia is in it,that anything else needs an external power supply!
If the clock is off,it prob..needs to be ajusted! the small slotted CaP
on the board by the XTAL ajusts the freq.....

As soon as the software is complete I should have a copy for the OS-9
Underground for review... I'll let you know how it works.
A person named Neil wrote the software and is marketing it himself.
I have his internet email address. I forgot his last name
