Just a random pick from googling "usb rfid reader linux" http://www.b-production.org/brosura_ang_print.pdf "Once the reader is plugged to the PC with Windows, Linux or MacOS operating system, the system recognizes it as a HID (Human Interface Device) keyboard, and therefore doesn't need any special drivers to function properly." Looks like they do what barcode scanners do: behave like a keyboard. So if you go that way, you now know that there is "easy" hardware. Come to think of it, if it's to be deployed to a hospital, make sure that these things don't interfere with any medical equipment. s. _______________________________________________ help-smalltalk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-smalltalk
