>Ummm, I wonder where the sources are?
On Philz's website:
http://vyx.net/~philz/app-dir/FastSerialConn/
You can easily hack this source to do what you want. You may want to
try non MNP compression. Also, you can hack NCU for MacOS to connect
without MNP.
I suggest that you read the programmer's guide and reference for the
various serial tools and MNP tool options.
I'm not totally sure about what you are trying to do.
>I have not tried this. I suspect it won't work though.
Apparently, you're right, it won't.

Indeed, the function TVoyagerPlatform::CheckForKeyboard( Boolean )
only uses port 0.
>Perhaps it scans port 3 also but in this case, it is looking for a modem?
The lookup for a modem is not done at startup, AFAIK.

Even when not accelerated?
