I wonder if I have the right combination of cable and adapters lying around to connect 25-pin serial to USB

I bet I do, which means I should be able to send some programs over the serial port via PIP to play with before my diskettes arrive, but that'll have to wait until tomorrow.

@djsundog the use of PIP in a computer related discussion that pertains to CP/M instead of Python in the year 2018 makes my day! 😊

@msh @djsundog I still can't believe the people that made MS-DOS, in a flash of stupidity, decided to use backslashes instead of forward slashes for path separators, not even thinking we might still be stuck with them almost 40 years later.
