- I don't know about assembly source, but you'll find all the relevant
- information for serial port communication in the RKMs. If you use this,
- it'll be a case of making a few library calls, setting up the odd structure,
- and off you go (presuming that you have a null modem cable ;-)
-
- You have several advantages in using the OS here; it'll be quicker than
- reinventing the serial wheel, it may work in the future, and the serial
- drivers were written by people who knew what they were doing and had known
- how to do so for years...
