[BC] Parallel Port Script Needed for EAS Activations

I do not think that a "script" will do it anymore. The operating system prevents one from writing directly to ports. If someone writes some Windows code, I suggest that they use a "COM" port, i.e., RS-232C and manipulate a modem control lead like RTS or DTR. there is lots of sample code on the "Net" that can be used.

I have tried to locate and even write my own script without any luck.

Looking for a simply Batch Script that I can have a Task Scheduler (JIT 
Scheduler) run
at random times to automate my RWT's.

I am running Windows XP and need to turn ON then OFF  Parallel Output 
Pin #2 (D0) which will
close a relay triggering my Gorman Redlich EAS box.
