: typing PR#N (N=slot of ProGrappler card) and then issuing a Control-I.

: I think.  I have not used an Orange Micro card of any type for a long time.

I just tried that tip, and it did not work.  But thanks for giving me
something to try, as it sure would have been neat to see a menu driven
parallel card.  <grin>

Anyway, I contacted the company which created the ProGrappler documentation.
The gentleman was kind enough to fax the page with the dip switch settings,
and I will gladly post it if somebody expresses interest.  As I haven't
really tried the appropiate settings with my card as of yet, I'm not sure
if otherthings (such as the menu based interface) are required to get it
working properly though.
