I can't send the number 13 from the Arduino to Pd using Arduino's Serial.write() function. Instead I'm receiving a 10. Does this have anything to do with the fact that ASCII 10 is a new line feed and ASCII 13 is the carriage return? Maybe [comport] is interpreting both values as the new line feed, just a thought.
A work around this is to use Serial.print((char)13); in the Arduino code. This did work with an Arduino UNO and my laptop, running Debian Jessie XFCE, but it failed with a Teensy 3.6 and an Ordoid-U3, running an Ubuntu 14.04 LTS image. Both systems run Pd-0.47-1 with [comport] installed via apt-get.
Apparently this issue seems to have been solved with the latest Arduino IDE (1.8.3) and the latest [comport] found in deken. I guess it was an Arduino issue since [comport] doesn't interpret anything. Anyway, I wanted to let the list know, in case anyone is interested in this. Now [comport] prints 13 with both Serial.write(13) and Serial.print((char)13).
