In order to use the link to do this I'll have to learn the protocol
and write code to handle it. The only 83 routines are low level
ones. I don't know if I want to get into anything that heavy at
the moment. I'll take a look at the 82 protocol and decide if it's
something I can do fast. If not, I think I'm going to stay with
the string thing till it's solved.
