Re: Using Perl to access serial ports

Just FYI: /dev/ttyS* devices are numbered from 0, so /dev/com1 corresponds
to /dev/ttyS0... Also, if you have a sequence of shell commands that
should work but don't (e.g., stty followed by echo followed by read/cat),
could you please post them, along with an equivalent program (whether perl
or C) that does work?

Ahh. That explains why /dev/com3 did nothing but /dev/ttyS3 gave me permission denied (I have an internal modem on COM3, but no COM4 port). I'll have another go at using the /dev method again then and let you know what I find.
