I haven't tried this under Windows, but you should be able to do: open serial://port1 optionally append settings in the form: /9600/none/8/1 to portX. You'll need the latest exp version. Also look at system/ports/serial and make sure that it looks something like: [ COM1 COM2 ] or [ serX ... ] for Unix (the /dev/ prefix is striped). If you have ports that are not in the list, just append them. -- David L. Hawley D.L.
