Yes I was looking into socket programming.This code does not output the gps data : import sys import socket s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_DGRAM) s.bind(('127.0.0.1', 2947)) while True: line = s.recv(1024) sys.stdout.write(line) sys.stdout.flush() Any suggestion as to why it dint work?It compiles fine.
