Some people emailed me privately and asked that I do post what I've come up with to the list.
I wrote this program over the course of the last week, starting with very little perl experience (I've modified others code, and small things like that) and acomplished a goal that prior to last week I considered unobtainable. Here is the current version. I expect to continue tweaking (one of the goals is to put the data in a database instead of a flat text file) but otherwise the program is doing what I want it to do. I want to say thanks again to the guys on this list who helped me crank out my very first, actual, useable, from-scratch perl program. I know it's simple, but I'm still proud. :) Comments are appreciated. Anyway, it can be found here: http://nothingimportant.net/perl-stuff/alcatel_readserial Thanks again! --J(K) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
