Telepathy is the best serial communication library for Nantucket/CA-Cl*pper.
|
|
I ported a significant amount of the functionality contained in Telepathy in
|
|
this Flagship port.
|
|
|
|
The .prg (in the MyTelepathy.tar package) is meant to be compiled with
|
|
Flagship and provide some of the functionality of the Telepathy serial
|
|
library from Extrasensory Inc. I've talked to Ira Emus, the proprietor of
|
|
Extrasensory and he's ok with what I've done here. But Extrasensory has no
|
|
involvement or responsibility with this project.

I wrote this originally on RedHat Linux 5.1 and I've tested it on RedHat
|
|
6.2. And now Neolinux 2.0.1 and 2.1. I've tested it on kernels 2.0.x - 2.4.x.
|
|
Your mileage may vary.
|
|
|
|
I only ported the parts of Telepathy that I needed. If you need other parts
|
|
of the telepathy libarary, Use the Source... (and send me your new functions)
|
|
|
|
I tried to keep parameter counts and orders as consistent as possible between
|
|
this Telepathy and the real Telepathy. The only difference I can think of is
|
|
the parameter list for tp_open (and tp_reopen). That's just because unix has
|
|
filename comports like /dev/ttyS0 and dos has com port numbers like 1. I kept
|
|
the com port number thing so that all the telepathy functions (and all your
|
|
code) that uses com port number won't need to be changed. But you do need to
|
|
change the calls to tp_open.

Feel free to use, modify, distribute, hack, kludge, append, extend or whatever
|
|
you like to this source code. You can (at your own risk) compile it into any
|
|
program you wish and sell or freely distribute the resulting application. I
|
|
would prefer you make your application Free and distribute the source. But who
|
|
am I to say - the suite of applications that my company sells that I originally
|
|
wrote this for is closed source.
|
|
|
|
Though I use this code in a production environment for a suite of programs that
|
|
my company actually sells, I make no promises (expressed or implied) about its
|
|
stability, functionality, effectiveness or anything else. I warn you now
|
|
that if you use my code, you're doing so at your own risk and it will probably
|
|
blow up your computer. But that's a risk you'll just have to take.

This software is totally as is, you may use it at your own risk.
|
|
|
|
This is freeware. But if you actually use this in your program, please send
|
|
me email at dan@boba-fett.net. I'd just be curious to see if anyone ever
|
|
uses it.
|
|
|
|
If you find a bug or write some new code for this project, pretty please send
|
|
me email with it.
