[PD] writing to the serial port with [comport]

[Hans-Christoph Steiner]

I am here working with David Cuartielles and some of his students, so  
I think he can write good Arduino code ;).  The network is down, and  
I am on my Mac, so I don't have the exact code.

We've tried a number of different programs and setups, and a couple  
different boards and computers.  Even the basic program which just  
relays the data received back to the serial port doesn't work.  Data  
is not coming out of the serial port from Pd.

Have you successfully written to the serial port on Windows using  
[comport]?
