For information, the keyer in SD (and SDI, SDV etc.) runs
correctly under XP, in either a window or in full-screen
mode, with fine control of speed and weight.  However, it
works on serial ports only.  If you select a parallel port
and attempt to output CW, the program hangs.

keying.

Has anyone tried this with SD?
