I'm writing a routine that checks for the presence of another calculator
on the other end of the link cable.  Like the equivilent of a
drastically downsized PING program.  Is there a certain byte you can
write to the linkport that when a another calc recieves it, the other
calc will automatically reply?  Something like an acknowledgement signal
that the TI link protocol uses?

thanks,
Cassady Roop
