I do PICs that side is trivial for me. Just figured someone already

The interpolator is realtime (er, simtime) based;

Andy,
What method would you recommend for a script that basically has to run
forever.

Any ideas?

I finally found the Nasal memory corruption bug this morning. I was
right that it was triggered by garbage collection, but it wasn't in
the Nasal code. The FGBinding implementation was holding a
SGPropertyNode* and assuming that its callees would never try to use
the SGPropertyNode_ptr interface

Nope - it'll use kernel GART, or its own internal one.

Anyone up for making a serial device? I only do a little programming

Needs sync bytes, something like this is common:
FF FF 0 axis1 0 axis2 0 axis3 etc.
Really just check the high bit, 2 set in a row is the sync, then a
