There was some recent discussion about serial ports and Perl.

But I did not see any resolution.
Did anyone end up porting either Win32::SerialPort or Win32API::CommPort
as Reini suggested?
I need to talk to a thermometer via a serial link. The protocol is not
very complex.
Could I just use a system call to stty to set the baudrate and then pipe
the thermometer comand to /dev/ttyS0 and read the response from
/dev/ttyS0 using file handles?
Why don't you try it?

I will!
But there are that many variables when trying to get a serial link up
(baud rates, parity, the type of flow control, the cable type), that I
was hoping to get an idea if my expectations were at least plausible. If
I know it should work I know to persist - but if you say "no thats not
implemented" I know to try another method.
