You meant that kind of transfer? Yes, exactly. I know of such a program (think I have it) but you had to press a key to tell the software that the printing is finished. So it did not monitor the bus AFAIR. I want to setup a disk drive sending a block (256 byte) of data after a U1, B-P=0 and another device reading the same data. The floppy sends a EOI with the 256th byte, so no problem here. I'll probably send the computer in a tight loop to monitor the IEEE EOI line (as tight that it does not miss the last byte with EOI). At least with this approach the computer does not slow down the transfer by handling the handshake lines itself, counting the bytes. Andre -- Email address may be invalid.
