[comp.sys.amiga.programmer] AREXX Serial Port Handler Sought

schur@isi.edu (Sean Schur) (01/13/91)

I'm not completely sure that this is the correct of all the new newsgroups
to post this, but I'll give it a try.

I am interested in finding out how to access the serial port through an
AREXX program. I need to send certain ASCII codes through the serial port.
Specifically, I want to be able to control a VAS (video machine for single
framing animations), which gets it's signals normally from the serial port.
All it needs to recieve are short ASCII codes. For example, "R" tells it
to record, "+" tells it to play, and so on.

Any suggestions?
