Can anyone recommend some stepper motor driver that one could send serial
coordinate commands? I'm
thinking that something like that exists?

Plenty---most commercial 'stepper motor contollers' are designed to be
driven by serial commands, because that's easier to integrate in the
industrial world. Galil, Oregon Micro are two that we used, but Google has
over 7 million hits for stepper motor controller serial port.

I found his product to be very good and his documentation is excellent.

Lin Engineering sell a driver RS325, that takes serial commands using
RS485 as opposed to RS232. This has the advantage of being able to
connect multiple drivers to the same PC port. RS232 to RS485 adapters
are available from several places, as well as USB to RS485 adapters
