In the immortal words of Philippine FreeBSD Info [EMAIL PROTECTED]...
Is there a simple way to set the D0 to D7 bits on the Parallel Port...
Simplest option (I've been doing a bit of this myself lately) is to use
the ppi interface. There is some example code (in C) to be found in
/usr/share/examples/ppi/ppilcd.c
Failing that, you could also try man ppi
perhaps with a script I could make into a cron job. I just want to
turn on and off some things through out the day. My buddy does this
with his WhenDoze? machine and basic, and everyone knows FreeBSD does
everything better!
I don't know for sure, but you can probably find something on CPAN in
the way of a Perl module for controlling the Parallel port.
Hope this helps
Cheers
Tim
