So I ordered a mini SSC II (the servo controller), in order to control some servos from the computer. I was hoping to use python to do the control but have two questions...
1) How should I write to the serial port with python? I found the module "pyserial": http://pyserial.sourceforge.net/ on the python cheeseshop, and it looks solid but I thought you might have a better suggestion. 2) To control the servos I have to send the SSC II a string of 3 numbers, 3 bytes long (so 3 numbers in the range 0 - 255, each as a single byte, one after another). In C I'd do this by sending 3 char's, as they're only 1 byte, but i'm not exactly sure how to do it in Python. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
