I think the synaser unit(from Synapse) is a very solid unit for crossplatform serial port access

I am new to free pascal, but have some experience with delphi. I wrote a program to control a milling machine (Elektor Profiler, see elektor.nl/ forum program Doit). The program is written in delphi-7 ( about 25.000 lines in 20 modules) and runs on MS-Xp. But as MS changes to much in its os's I want to change to linux as os. The program uses 2 I/O-ports (serial or usb-serial) and here I have a problem in translating my program into free-pascal. I think the forms and screen layouts present no problem, it will take a lot of re-typing but oke. The serial-port problem is my main worry as the programflow depends heavely on the communication with the milling machine. My question is: where do I find lib's with serial-port or usb-port routines which I may use to control the communication-lines (bits) to the milling machine.
Thanks in advance,
Piet van der Wal (PE0PWA).
