[comport] is included in the Pd-extended installer:

[hid] for Windows is in progress. I was hoping to have it done in
December, but I have been thwarted by the Windows HID API. Windows
locks the mouse and keyboard so Pd cannot get the data. I've been
trying to find a good solution to get around that, it looks like the
only way is to make a separate DirectInput object.
