I'm curious (and Google isn't yielding an answer)
if there is a software solution to the Propeller resetting when a serial connection is closed on the PC?

Thanks
OBC

    in Windows you can open the port w/o support for RTS (mode-command) this helped one small c-application of mine.
    Most of the code I stole from RossH's Catalina Loader called Payload.
    BUT does NOT work with linux, still resetting there.

    So I went back to ProtoBoards and PropPlug, short servocable inbetween and Reset not connected.

    The other Reset-thing is solvable ...

    mparks spinx is checking if pin 31 is high.

    if yes Fullduplexserial gets started else not

    this helps against a prop resetting itself using the port with usbcable disconnected.
    w/o usb-onbord this problem does not exist.

    Enoy!
