For the above function, you pass a value as the one you got to tcgetattr, with values modified as you desire them. i tryed print term_conf and i saw that the term_conf is actually represent with an array in python: zsh/3 4201 [1] % python test.py [27906, 5, 1215, 35387, 15, 15, ['\x03', '\x1c', '\x7f', '\x15', '\x04', '\x00', '\x01', '\xff', '\x11', '\x13', '\x1a', '\xff', '\x12', '\x0f', '\x17', '\x16', '\xff', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00', '\x00']] it's a array of 7 elements, with the seventh element it self a array, so in order to initialize them to zero, there's no other way than modify them one by one in a loop? is there a fonction like memset or bzero in python? Again: no, there is no such function. But for the above, you'd easily write: foo = [0] * 7 # only do this with immutables foo[-1] = ['\x00'] * 16 alternatively, you modify the result you got from tcgetattr in the places you want.

It returns a list of integers. If you want set them to zero, then just set them to zero. If you want a configuration that's all zeros, why bother calling tcgetattr() at all? Just set the configuration to zeros: term_conf = [0,0,0,0,0,0] -- Grant -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

That should be: term_conf = [0,0,0,0,0,0,['\x00']*32] That's why it's easier to just use pyserial ;) -- Grant -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list

You cannot write quality Python code without them. http://docs.python.org/3.1/library/functions.html What you refer to as an array is called a list round here, see this informative read http://docs.python.org/3.1/library/stdtypes.html#sequence-types-str-bytes-bytearray-list-tuple-range And be sure to check out list comprehentions too, just icing on the cake ;) python 3000 docs http://docs.python.org/3.1/ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
