[PD] about [serial] object -OSX PD

[martin pichlmair]

concerning keyspan i'ld like to mention that there are cheaper comports 
out there. and the one i bought does not misbehave as bad as the 
keyspan thing does. e.g. it does not appear as a new device in /dev 
every time.

that just has to be said on the mailing list so that it is found in the 
archives (and your brains :)

if someone's interested i can look up the model that i use at home in 
the evening and post it.

you may also try my slightly altered comport object (a newer version 
than the one annie uses). it's attached. i did not test it enough yet, 
so any comments are welcome. it might as well not work at all. the 
major change is that it creates the object despite the /dev it searches 
is not found. you might then use the "device 
/dev/ttySverylongkeyspannumberstuff" message to attach it to your 
comport (that you find out via the terminal).
