% 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
