CM|   Does anyone out there in Net.Land have the pin connections to use
CM| for a CTS/RTS handshake compatible serial cable for the GS?  I am
CM| currently using one that I hacked together based on the diagram in
CM| the Hardware Ref. for the GS, but some programs tend to barf quite
CM| badly on it, 'cause it doesn't support the hardware handshakes.
CM|   Oh, yeah.  please post here (to CSA2), as I think others may be
CM| interested.
