In the Fugue 4 release of RS232FTP running on a Dolphin, there is a bug in the display shutdown code for highspeed operation (e.g., 9600 bps); the call of DSPFONT in /RS232FTPINITIALIZE has its arguments reversed, so it breaks.'

This bug was noted and fixed prior to March 15 of this year, but due to space limitations on the file servers at Parc, I have no way of knowing exactly what version of RS232FTP was distributed with Fugue.4 (or even Fugue.6 for that matter!).  It would always be beneficial to include the data from the FILEDATES property of any Lisp>Library or LispUsers package that is being discussed [1100Support': maybe this could be mentioned explicitly in the next release note, and support personnel could be aware of asking for such information from customers].'
'
Things have developed rapidly in the customer support section at Pasadena, and I believe they are much more coordinated in the releases of Fugue.6 and Carol.  Any chance that you could upgrade to the Carol sysout and library packages, thereby making this bug a moot point?  Nevertheless, we always appreciate the vigil of an active user such as yourself, especially since the DLion development has tended to move Dolphin-specific problems like this one "off to the edge of the page".'
