nrsdrv - KISS to NET/ROM serial converter

None known.
Description
Nrsdrv is a program designed to convert from the KISS protocol to the NET/ROM serial protocol used by
real NET/ROM's and TheNet's. The protocols are fairly similar, although the NET/ROM serial protocol does
include a one byte checksum which KISS does not.
Typically nrsdrv will be attached to one end of a pseudo-tty of which the other end has been attached to
a KISS capable program. The NET/ROM device will probably be a real serial port attached to a TNC or a
Hexipus. The full specification of the NET/ROM serial protocol can be found in the original Software 2000
documentation that accompanied NET/ROMs.
