Hi all.

maybe we should move the conversation to the typewriters mailing list 
typewriters at yahoogroups.com. It feels a bit uncomfortable talking about 
these machines here. :-)

anyway, I managed to attach my Auxiliary reader to my SPD but stumbled 
upon a coding problem: My SPD uses Bull code and the auxiliary reader 
the normal Friden code. the space code on the Friden is the same as the 
stop read code on the SPD. Now i have to find the place where this is 
handled so i can use the auxiliary reader in a mailmerge setup.:-)

My Auxiliary punch is made for a computyper setup and uses a completely 
different setup completely, with different pinouts and two cables to the 
system (which I don't have unfortunately)
