that's exactly what i do - but it does not seem to work. i'm quite sure that it's the fault of my program (not the callers fault). . set-modes system/ports/input [ binary: true lines: false ] . probe get-modes system/ports/input [ binary lines ] . probe copy/part system/ports/input 8 ; [binary: true lines: false] ; #{} when i try to read-io, read-io returns -1. system/ports/input looks as attached: . probe system/ports/input [i replaced every occurrence of paths with /path/to/script] make object!
