I posted quite a few pages, there's more to do, but you will get the
idea. It's on www.tech-diy.com

you can play around with the codes, create a "*.txt" file and send it
with the following commands:

mode com1:9600,n,8,1,p
copy myfile.txt com1

I use WordPad instead of NotePad, as WordPad has "find and replace".

I've taken apart some of the Gerber files generated by Ultiboard --
they can be quite simplified -- the most annoying and time consuming
is the AA -- arc absolute -- in Ultiboard a 1% angle is specified --
this can and should be changed using "find and replace" in Wordpad.

I would like you to correct some of the info on your web page.

The following:
"World's Messiest Darkroom/Electronics Laboratory"
should read
"World's 2nd Messiest Darkroom/Electronics Laboratory"

Uh, you don't want to make this a competition. Only reason I wouldn't beat both of you is on a technicality, as mine isn't a darkroom.

Caveteursus, thanks! I'm adding this to the Links section. BTW, if you post it with http:// in front then it is a clickable link for most mail programs.
