Do you happen to have a parallel port? for some reason I think it would be
easier to use directly than a comport...


for example: http://www.mail-archive.com/pd-list@iem.at/msg05283.html

using the parallel port:
you need the external zexy ftp://ftp.iem.at/pd/Externals/ZEXY , which
contains the object [lpt] to get acces to the parallel port. on linux,
you need to be root to get permissions, on windows you need to installl
something addidionatlly (have a look at the helpfile of [lpt]).
