Hi Paul,
I'm writing a PD PKT twitter for use with TinyPoint. I won't
tell you that I'm going to use Visual Basic because it will only upset
you, so we can pretend I'm using portable ISO-C compiled by Watcom.
Just looking at the packet, it seems that every message begins with
C702 C702 0000 0000 and I can use this to identify messages. I have
tried it manually, just overwriting the message with spaces, and it
seems to work okay, but I'm a worried there may be a trap for young
players (and poor old pensioners).
I have a two questions:
1. Is the C702 C702 0000 0000 a reliable identifier?
2. If not, what is?
3. Will over-writing spaces between the C702... etc damage the packet?
4. Where can I get the PKT specifications?
5. Is true love the most important thing in the Universe? (I just threw
that in, on the offchance you'd know).
Regards,
Bob
