The APDA HyperCard Technical stuff includes XCMDs that directly control
the serial port.  Other than those I don't know of any way to do it.

                                                -nazgul

P.S.  They also include drivers for a number of different CD-ROM systems!

I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept       responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate     everyone else's.
