[REBOL] Re: Serial Communication - Desperately Seeking...

your port open command should look like:
com1: open/mode/with serial://port1/4800/none/8/1 [read direct lines
<other mode stuff>] "^M"
while [0 <> (length? (line: first com1))] [ print line ]
You don't say what line termination is - so change ^M as needed. for
modes. You might play with binary and no-wait also. no-wait if you need
todo other things besides wait blocked on reading the port.
I was a couple of months ago that I did something similar - it was a
binary protocolbut it workedOK. I seem to remember that the program
would sometimes "run ready"- eating all CPU time, but don't remember
crashing.
