I to would like to see how to send data to the parallel port and serial port thats a code ive been trying to get for over 25 years now but sofare no one seems to know how so i gave up on it long ago till i started thinking about robots again

also i need a little help on how to get data from the user in ez script

@Wolfie,

You mean you want to sent data to a parallel (or serial) port of a PC, from a (selfmade) program running on that same PC ?

I want to send a binary code to the 8 bit data lines of the parallel port from a command line and from a program like a bat file but have never been able to find out how once i know how to i will design electronic circuits that will respond to the codes

Using sdk you have the ability to write using each ports serial com however you don't have the ability to read as each port is an output thus no ability to input.

There's plenty of similar stuff for VB available. I've done similar things ages ago. VB however uses a dll file which makes it easy for the programmer. When you do this directely from a bat or console you'll need to a lot of programming yourself.

Just have to understand the communiction protocals. Once you have them down you can easly program this ability into almost any application. Yes the DLL files make it easier but why reinvent the wheel when its at your finger tips.

I am not looking to do it from vb or any other as the code im looking for is a simple one just dont know it i beleave its some thing like out com1 bla bla many years ago i worked out a system for it that will alow me alot of control over many many things even more if i string the codes together like in a bat file or with mirc i have asked many and most ppl dont know and the ones that do know would not tell me but i refuse to give up on it lol
