Credits
Thanks to the following folks for making x-automate possible:
- Aaron Hightower for x10-amh
- Mark Crimmins, author of Dialer in the TKGoodstuff distribution
- Mario Jorge Silva for the file selector code
- John Ousterhout, author of Tcl/Tk
- Linus Torvalds and the whole Linux community for a great operating system
Last but not least, thanks to my wife DiAnne and my daughter Emma, for
putting up with my compulsive hacking/tinkering.
From Aaron: Credit also goes to the many people who have fixed bugs
in the program, especially Bruce Perens for pointing out the lack of
proper flow control settings. (My serial ports didn't have RTS/CTS lines
on them, so I didn't notice that RTS/CTS handshaking would prevent the
device from working on a 16550 or other common serial device that does
support RTS/CTS handshaking. I was using a Boca 4-port.) Also, thanks to Terry
Carlin for pointing out a problem with the programming interpreter, and
A.B. Gaskin for pointing out the daymap was reversed.
