- bidirectional parallel ports only, which can transmit 8 bits at a
- time (mode 1); you can find the wiring of these cables in

- 15m long. Mode 0 works also if one of the machines runs DOS/Windows
- and has some PLIP software installed, e.g. the Crynwr PLIP packet
- driver (<http://oak.oakland.edu/simtel.net/msdos/pktdrvr-pre.html>)

- protocol has been changed and this PLIP driver won't work together
- with the PLIP support in Linux versions 1.0.x. This option enlarges

- To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
