>I have a cx250 and a cx153. Is it possible to transfer text back and forth on these models?

Huh - those are exactly the two models I have...

I have successfully downloaded text to the 250 by emulating button presses on
the remote, through the S-link port. (Anybody else notice that the "u" and "v"
are in reverse order when pressing the "8" key? :-)

It's rather slow, as I have to leave a pause between each "key press" (or else
things get very confused), but it does work.

The 153 only supports memo input using the shuttle dial and I haven't been able
to get any of the shuttle key-codes to work on it. I think memo text downloading
is a lost cause on that box.

As far as uploading text from the changer, I'm pretty sure that the "get memo
text" s-link command works on the 250 - but I can't recall if it worked on the
153...

I've been using Hypercard on a Mac to do this stuff, so I don't know how useful
any of my code would be to others on this BBS. If anybody wants any of my (very
unpolished) Hypercard stuff (or just the text of the scripts) feel free to drop
me a line.
