[Coco] RS DOS RS232 application?

[Brian Blake]

Gene,

I'm not qualified to answer your question, lol. I'm not a NitrOS-9/OS9
user.

For CoConet, IIRC, the mod was a crystal change and simply entering the
230k rate in the CoConet configuration file on the PC. It worked on the
rs232 board I was using; both wired and over Bluetooth. I also tried XBEE
modules, but, those only ran at 115k (actually, 111k,but that's a whole
other story).

I really liked CoConet, but, lacked the ability to change disk images on
the PC rendering it useless for multi disk applications. The lack of
development since Roger 'sold' it means it's pretty much a dead product
now.
