How to forward serial devices' input to X?

2013-04-29 Thread Magicloud Magiclouds
Hi, We have a barcode scanner used here, which for some reason has to be a serial device. So all its scanning output is sent to /dev/ttyACM0. If I `cat /dev/ttyACM0`, I could get the strings. Problem now is, how to let these input be sent to X, acting like a normal keyboard. Any ideas? --
