Readme for serialport-0.2.0

[back to package description]
% Haskell serialport

Name
----
	serialport - Cross platform serial port library.


Description
-----------

This library provides a way to interface the serial port from haskell in a cross platform way.

Tested on the following platforms:
 
 - Linux (Arch, Fedora 11, OpenSuse 11.1)
 - Windows XP 32-bit 

This library is far from finished and is currently in a "Eureka, I can talk to a 
raw serial device on Linux and Windows" state. I released it because some people were looking
for something like this. Especially on Windows it was a challenge.


Install
-------

Install using the standard Hackagedb way:

	cabal update
	cabal install serialport


Problems & suggestions
