We have an Iris 4D running 4Sight. We are trying to experiment with a variety of input devices. Most of these devices send their data over a serial port. It would be convenient if we could have a background process running (some sort of demon, I guess) that read and analysed this data, and entered the appropriate values onto the device queue of the process with the input focus. There is a routine called qenter() that adds entries to a process' own device queue, but I couldn't find one that adds to another process' queue. Such a routine must exist somewhere, as mouse, keyboard, dial box, etc. events are automatically entered on the queue. Does anyone know how this can be accomplished? Thanks in advance.
