Moin Charles,

31.10.96 17:57, you wrote a message to Vitus Jensen:

Sorry, that should have read 'on many BBSs'.  I don't run a BBS (not yet). 
Should be on hobbes now (IMHO Peter said so).

You did??
So what does 'locked baudrate' mean?  Nothing?

Mhmm, compiled a small testprogram.  ASYNC_SETBAUDRATE and
ASYNC_EXTSETBAUDRATE have no influence.  SU (of 4 Port SIO 1.45,
registrated) and ASYNC_[EXT]GETBAUDRATE continue to tell 57600.

How did you manage to change it?

C-x C-s
