Because I've been having trouble with Xon/Xoff handshake, I thought I'd
give hardware handshaking a try. I have been using DIN to DB-25 adapter
cables to hook my serial printers to my Macs. I remember that to use
hardware handshaking used to require a special nine-pin serial cable on
the Mac side. Is this correct or does a "regular" 8-pin DIN type of
cable work?

Thank you,

PB

PS: Is there anyone out there who is successfully using Xon/Xoff in FB3?
By successfully, I mean is it successfully stopping the output when the
serial device fills up? For me, everything is great until label #50 or
so, where data loss occurs due to overflow.
