Eric,

THANKS for designing USBTTY and making it available to us!!

Got the board fired up, but have some questions:
In the Config Settings - in "AUTOMSG" - how do you enter "EOF" from to 
computer keyboard to exit from the text entry??  I assumed it would be a 
"CTL-" or "ALT-" sequence, but I think I tried everything and nothing 
seemed to work. (I want to use the "Autoprint" feature for demos at the 
Antique Wireless Museum.)

What are people using for a terminal program?  I was surprised to find 
that Hypertem is no longer included in MS OS since MS Vista (I'm using 
W7 and assuming W10 won't include it either).  I downloaded "ExtraPuTTY" 
and it worked, but it was hard to find the "Serial Data" mode and I 
couldn't figure out how to save my settings/config.  I have read that 
the Win XP exe & dll files for Hyperterm will still work on W7, so I 
will try that next.

In looking for a small plastic box to put the board into, my wife 
suggested Jo-ann's Fabric & Craft store. We went there and she got $2.50 
worth of pins and I got a "free" ~2" square sturdy plastic box!

Thanks & have fun,

Duncan
