[Hamlib-developer] libhamlibtcl.so

[Ellis W. <k0...@ya...>]

Stephane:

I did a brute force relink of libhamlibtcl.so
to libhamlib.so and discovered that what has been
implemented is as you say "a proof of concept".

I will take a shot at completing what has been
so far implemented for my own puposes. When I 
have something to contribute I'll let you know.


The other obstacle I encountered was accessing the
correct serial port.  It seems that the serial port is
hard coded to "/dev/ttys0"? Is there another way
to specify the device without recompiling the library?
My system uses several serial ports for mouse, 
rig control, keying the transmitter for PSK, 
a TNC for packet ...
