    Re: legOS on Mac OS X —Ross Crawford
   (...) Looks like you're probably the first to try this, so good luck! But if the Darwin version of cc can be built to support the h8, you're still gonna have to (most likely) make changes to firmdl & dll programs to get them working with the Mac. Do (...)

     (...) You mean USB on Mac OS X, or the USB tower specifically on any platform? You are really screwed if you need a serial driver on OS X.

   (...) If I remember correctly, the tty devices will block in open() until they see some handshake (perhaps DCD) from the other side, while cu devices open right away and ignore handshake.
