Scott, totally fair point - a little candid, but fair... I'm on a OS X, python 2.5. Basically I will have a remote application pushing data (GPS) over the network to a python application I have running on my Mac, I want this python application to again push the data on to a "virtual serial port". Then the GPS program I have running on my MAC, RouteBuddy, can read the data from that serial port as standard. The only part I am concerned about here though, is if I can create a serial port virtually and push data out of it? Hope that defines a little more clarity for yourself. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
