Re: "I/O Intr" record not processing

[Érico Nogueira Rolim via Tech-talk <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

Hi, Bo

The StreamDevice docs specify the following for I/O Intr records:

 > The protocol now receives any input from the device. It also gets a
copy of all input directed to other records.

I believe the input that matches the `in` statement in GetV is what's
passed to GetTime first, then the remaining bytes; none of those will
match what GetTime expects. Could you use the same pattern you used in
GetTime in GetV? Just changing where the non-ignored value is.

Cheers,
Érico
