Ben,Thanks for the code.  Here's some not very formatted stdout that I get when I run my test for your code.  I'm not sure what to make of the strange characters that I get from the buffer output.  Do you think it's binary?  I tried to meld your code into the pygarmin.py code with some success.  T

I did get things mostly working. I've attached what I have done. I had problems with losing data at higher baud rates, so I buffered data in read(). If this is not the desired behavior it is easy to change (just look in the source). You also need ctypes installed. Good Luck, Ben #some minor m

Thanks Gonzalo for your help. I have read both the ctypes and microsoft documentation. My understanding is that I need to use the CreateFile API function from the coredll to get a handle to the comm port. When I use ctypes: >>> windll.coredll.CreateFile I get an AttributeError saying the Creat

Have you read the ctypes docs? http://starship.python.net/crew/theller/ctypes/tutorial.html You have to read the Microsoft docs too, search what dynamic libraries to use and what functions to call. Study the example I posted, you have to call these functions using ctypes: (openfile, readfile,

I've got ctypes installed. However, I have not been able to find any examples of how I might use ctypes for serial port access. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Ben On 6/20/06, Gonzalo Monzón <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Benjamin, > > You can use ctypes for direct access to ser
