Hello Mark, Hans-Christoph,

I am looking for something that could used with AID (www.interaccess.org/aid) to encourage people to use PD with it. The AID project is focused on non-technical (to some degree) arists and therefore a shell script parser would not be all that ellegant. I can wip up a quick tcl script that sits on the serial line and routes everything to pd via local socket, but it's a bit of a pain to set up for a an end user (perhaps). At least compared to using a PD object directly with a set of abstractions to set up the specifics.

There must be a string-based serial object at least for windows?

Serialctl is a serial interface external for Linux, but I think what Ben needs is a stream parser for lists, a bit like netsend/netreceive, but for serial lines instead of tcp/ip links. Modified versions of pdsend and pdreceive could act as local proxies between serial lines and netsend/netreceive. A possible solution is to redirect serial streams to and from pdsend/pdreceive with simple shell scripts.
