[REBOL] using copy with serial ports under Win2000
From: caw::cs::mu::oz::au at: 4-Jun-2001 13:51
I'm using a serial port under win2000
ser: serial://9600/1/odd/7
ser/timeout: 1
data: "<07D7F>"
insert ser data
and now I want to get back the response. If I repeatedly type
first ser
then I get the data back char by char. (There is no \n or other EOL
delimiter that I can use for open/lines/with). I want to get the whole lot
back. But if, instead of repeated "first ser" I try:
print copy ser
I timeout.
I don't understand why.
What's the right idiom for this??
Thanks very much
