Hi, I am newbie in python. I am working on Telit GM862 GPS/GPRS module which has python interpreter built in. But it seems this problem is pretty much related to general python structure.
I need a promt/terminal when the device is connected to PC. If user enters a command by serial port and press "Enter" then the data is read by the device and work on the command. This is similar to readline() function. Unfortunately there is no readline() function for GM862 device. The following functions are available for serial port data receive- SER.read() - reads whole string at a time from buffer SER.receive(timeout) - reads if there is any input in the buffer andwait for the input upto timeout SER.receivebyte(timeout) - reads if there is any byte sent in the buffer and wait for the input upto timeout Now, is this possible to build a readline() using the functions above? Can I redirect the terminal or serial port data to receive it as a whole string when entered "\n"? Please advise me how can I solve this problem. Thanks a lot. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
