1. I am connecting to an external microcontoller development board by

Using BaseUnix, and fpfcntl (which is fcntl in unix) perhaps ?
I think I concluded that myself after some tracing through the source
code. I can only find baseunix.ppu which is not plain text - is there
some utility to view this?
2. I need to respond to the occurence of input on the serial port.
This is trivial in Tcl - fileevent FileDescriptor FunctionName - how
do I achieve this in fpc?
Try http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/index.php/Main_Loop_Hooks.
I suspected as much; thanks for the confirmation.
