Also I belive you are trying to build an RS-232 rompack plug-in. If you
like I can take a quick look at doing that. It was on my list anyway so I
think I have a something started already. Again I need to loook for it. :)

Now I never had permission at any time to publish the source myself nor
would I even think of it cause someone somewhere has to have control/rights
even if he did die.​


​Now what's funny is the email that I was chatting with him on does have a
Google+ account connected to it now, but the name on the account does not
match the name I would expect.  The name shows on the Google+ is "Jack
Parsons"

I myself am no lawyer ​and one reason I really didn't want to get into the
mess of trying to push the code open source since he was going to do it and
I was never given permission to do so.
