Simplest option (I've been doing a bit of this myself lately) is to use the ppi interface. There is some example code (in C) to be found in /usr/share/examples/ppi/ppilcd.c Failing that, you could also try man ppi > perhaps with a script I could make into a cron job.

I don't know for sure, but you can probably find something on CPAN in the way of a Perl module for controlling the Parallel port. Hope this helps Cheers Tim -- Tim Aslat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Spyderweb Consulting http://www.spyderweb.com.au P: +61 8 82243020 M: +61 0401088479 _______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
