First, thanks to everyone for the very helpful responses.
I'll try them tonight after work and see how it goes.

As far as I know (which isn't much!), there isn't a hamlib config
file.  It seems that rigctl lets you test hamlib but doesn't let
you create a permanent file with settings.  If that's true, I need to
set the PTT device in gMFSK.

So to specify /dev/parport0 as the PTT device, would I in gMSFK
first set Settings/Preferences/Devices/PTT to /dev/parport0
and then enable PTT in the hamlib menu??  I have a feeling I'm
missing something...
