I'd like to find the diagrams for building a device that can be connected to a parallel port or to the RS232. This device would be able to control other devices around the house such as the lights, the appliances etc... I don't have the knowledge to design such a device but I am can build it .. Can anyone indicate me a specific magazine or book that contains that type of diagrams? Thanks in advance ... - Sandro (pedro@cs.mcgill.ca) P.S. Please e-mail me directly .. I won't have access to the Usenet for a while .... Thanks
