Hello
Long ago I wrote a REXX program to read a counter connected to my PC via a

You're welcome :-). Thanks!

I would like to thank everybody that has provided ideas on serial port
communications using ooRexx.
I do not have a final solution yet, but with your help I have had
partial success.
"stty" says that it has changed the port speed, but it really has not.

Never used it, but there's a RxFuncAdd library out there in the wonderful world
of the internet called "RxComm". It was written by Christian Kulovits
(Austria). Its stated purpose: "RxComm is a REXX Communications application

Another thought I had is to use something like socat. At least in Linux.
socat is a command line program that can hook up inputs and outputs. So you
could hook up your /dev/… device to a Named Pipe, or even a socket. Your Rexx
program can then use the named pipe of socket to communicate with
Another thing to try. Make a Loop back tester. RX <-> TX, etc to see if you
can echo characters back and forth to your self. If you can’t talk to your self
via the test adapter then you know which side of the connection is broken.
