I don't know if this will be useful, but I believe that a really simple interface could be developed using the Device::SerialPort and Win32::SerialPort packages for perl. It is really straightforward and the nice things about perl are it is platform independent and it is great for parsing data.
I'm going to be travelling for work next week, so I'll have a bunch of time to sit on the plane and work on this. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what would be useful to include as core functionality? I was thinking of creating a module so that people could take it and use it.
If anyone has interest, please let me know what you would find useful and I'll see what I can do. At the very least, I was thinking about a basic logging tool, but I'm open to suggestions.
Thanks,
Mike
