Ok I was a tad bit confused. You originally said to recompile the RTL,
which I don't really want to do anyway, and I don't have the sources to
recompile. I'll just stick with the main stream version :)
People that use my console programs are just gonna have to have the gpm
library installed now aren't they :)

[fpc-pascal]Sending files over a Nullmodem cable
Hello I play with the thought to write a socket program. This program should transfer large data files from my main computer to my notebook. For the connection, I want to use a nullmodem cable over the serial port. I will use the client/server model. The first problem is, how to access the serialport in FreeBSD with FPC ? Are there any examples or units that I can study.

No. Otoh, it is nothing more than configuring, and than reading/writing a device. See e.g. man sio (and specially note the "files" section) to see how serial ports are named. However that is not socket based by default, you'd probably need to run SLIP on it. ___ fpc-pascal maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
