        I'm running MPLAB 4.12 and ProMate 5.00.00 .  I believe
handshaking (RTS-CTS) is working since the downloads are fine under DOS,
though it could be that Windoze is dozing while running under DOS (a DOS
session in Windoze) is faster.  I'll see if I can find my RS232 breakout
box and see if the appropriate lights are flashing...
