Heh.  I didn't have to guess.

I miss the days when CS students were forced to build bitslice machines
and interface them to learn this sort of thing.

For people into learning on their own, I suggest:

	Technical Apects of Data Communication
	McNeely (SP?)
	Digital Press

It's a bit dated, and uses DDCMP as one of its examples, but it gives
good coverage on everything from the Bell 103C standard to building
a NULL-modem cable.
