Well, isn't my face red. I'm pretty sure the IO_ports package is
Jerry's, but the paper I'm talking about isn't. It is an article by Tom
Dickinson. I found my hard copy, it's from two years ago. Mr
Dickinson's email address is "tsd@bnl.gov" Again, it's two years old so
I'm not sure if it's still valid. Briefly reviewing the article, it
also has directions on how to interface a simple A to D converter to the
parallel port. I apologize again for getting the names wrong. I
just hope Jerrry will keep answering my questions :)
