isn't this sufficient? might require some more Win32 bindings...

 So, next stop:  look for a serial library in C (or C++ with appropriate
 wrappers) for Win32 and make an FFI binding for it.

1) I noticed there is no open function in Data.ByteString. So  
when I call writeFile or readFile is there an implicit open?


Correct; they're modeled after the writeFile and readFile functions in  
System.IO.


2) For both readFile and writeFile, the first parameter is of  
type FilePath (which is of course alliased to just String). In any  
case, for Windows and POSIX OS's like Linux can read and write to a  
serial device like RS232 by specfiying the device path, e.g. /dev/ 
tty01?


Only if the default port configuration is sufficient.  You may need to  
use System.IO.Posix functions to set things up, then wrap in a Handle  
and pass to getContents.

Hi Brandon,

 I have forgotten about RS232 protocol. Can I just reads and writes from
the RS232 device from an application to handle data? Or do I need to handle
RS232 protocol events in the application?

Thanks, Vasili

Usually the OS handles protocol events, although you have to tell it  
what kind of events matter (carrier? does it use hardware flow  
control, ^S/^Q, or ETX/ACK?)  I suggest heading to MSDN and digging up  
documentation on how serial devices work on Windows.
