You'd have to write to the USB APIs for each OS. I haven't done it

does serial port communications. It would work with a USB<-> serial
adapter tho.

output to USB as well? PhilHans-Christoph Steiner hans@eds.org wrote:
For serial devices, you can use [comport], which is a standalone object. For USB devices, you'd probably need to write specific objects for specific devices.

Is there an object built into PD that will allow me to send commands to things like printers and scanners via the serial port (USB

and also recieve data from serial ports. If it isn't built into PD which set of externals should I get? Thanks Phil
