I am writing a BBS door for Maximus, and have the COM port I/O routines
working quite well.

What I need to do now is allow my program to send its output to the Sysop's
locale console simultaneously.

Any ideas?

I have tried opening a file handle to "con", and DosWriting to
it.  That doesn't work.

I have tried DosWriting to file handle 1, which I am told is supposed to be
the local output console.  That doesn't work.

I'm pretty much at a loss.

Chris
