    Angry serial port control

    Hello all.

    i want to make a program that can read from the serial port
    whenever there is something there. i tried the _inp(address)
    command (microsof visual C++ 5 compiler) but it is reading the
    address at any time and giving me zeros, i want it to be like an
    interrupt.

    is there a way? like hyper terminal on windows? is it working
    with interrupts?

    thanks a lot.

    When all else fails, read the instructions.
