hey everyone- I am working on a project here that requires me to send some strange ASCII characters to the serial port on my bsd machine...I am thinking that I might just be able to get away with writing a shell script that would "echo "thest ASCII data" >/dev/cuaa" am I correct in this line of thinking? If so my other issue is that a few of the scharacters are like CTRL+2 at the same time...it seems that pico will not support some of the necessary commands...how can I get these to echo out the serial port. another one that I have to send is CTRL+D (end of transmission) but everytime that I use that in a telnet session to the bsd box I get disconnected...how can I do this??? PLEASE HELP!! thanks in advance, Bernie To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
