Re: Advanced Slink-e For Dummies Needed Please

I second that motion.

I am not a programmer either but when I went back to grad school at UCLA in 1961 I did write a program for a, then obsolete and non functioning, vacuum tube puter in machine language - took a semester to write a program to find the sum of the squares of the first 50 integers.

Now in a high level language like AWK or REXX that would probably take about six lines of code - including the I/O.

I have read books on 8086 assembly language and C pointers for recreational purposes - the pointers were not for recreation - the reading was :)

I coded a few utilities for the BBS that ran for nine years on networked DOS boxes but, the slink-e stuff has me Big Time confused.

If I could see a file to make the CDJ volumne contols work on a Sony STRDE925 receiver, I think it would be a big help.

I have not yet looked at the X-10 stuff although every light, some speakers, and a few other loads in my house are controlled by X-10 using a Stargate smart controller -- nice box - wretched software btw.

Hoping someone can help out the dummies here - I bet there are more of us.

Cheers, Jim.
