• Working at the German Aerospace Center DLR http://www.dlr.de .
• I'm designing and implementing software for scientific space experiments and for testing facilities.
• My favorite language is Tcl, but I'm also doing a lot of stuff in C and Forth - depending on the target.

We are developing microprocessor boards. Most of our boards and testing equipment is connected via RS-232 (Comports). If you ask how to access external hardware via serial ports with Tcl:

• Look at More Serial Port Samples
• A small WinCom extension to support extended serial port settings for Tcl 8.2/8.3 at Win32. Obsolete, now integrated in the Tcl 8.4 core - http://www.rolf-schroedter.de/wincom/WinCom.html
• Simple serial monitor in pure Tcl (~ 60 lines) - https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/3642
• Serial port monitor program for Windows & Linux written in Tcl/Tk using BWidget - http://www.rolf-schroedter.de/moni/moni.html
