Have mentioned before about using Xap to display messages on
a tv using a pic and an OSD chip , no  response but i would still like
to
have a go just to dip my toes in the xap waters so to speak........ I
have
had the pic receiving serial messages  and displaying them on my tv
using
hyperterminal to send the messages and was able to flash some messages
by
using the ascii  bell character so i think that xap is just (hopefully
) a
couple more notches up the rung ..........What i need is some simple
program
were  i can type in the xap message and send it out the serial port to
the
pic .. If anyone can help much appreciated................
