[comp.sys.amiga] Serial Device handling

gilgan@ug.cs.dal.ca (S.O.D.) (02/07/90)

 Could someone PLEASE send me some source and/or explain to me
 the process involved in getting the serial port(for a modem)
 working... I thought I had it under control but I don't.
 Specifically I need to be able to open the device ,set the baud
 and stop bits etc.., read and write to the modem. I have used
 the intuition for programming but I have no information on anything
 else(I have the intuition reference manual).

 Even if you don't have any source, but still understand, please give
 me a few clues, I'm getting desperate.

 Thanks,
	 Tom

	You really need to pick up the ROM Kernel Manual: Libraries and
Devices.  It has example code in it for opening, reading and writing,
and setting line parameters.  The new revised edition has just hit the
streets and it's a god one.
