i'm an embedded hacker doing my best to use FreeBSD for monitoring all my little units Inet/html/snmp style. anyway - i have tons of Borland/Tasm 4.5 code that i'd like to port to BSD. as i see it, all my direct access drivers (and i have custom modular drivers for EVERYTHING) will wreak major havoc with BSD. my initial/major concern is reading incoming packets at the FreeBSD boxes radio modem links (should appear as a normal modem). what C function will allow me to r/w null terminated strings as well as numofbytes specified arrays from/to com ports? what's good ref material for gcc functs? what devices will BSD completely ignore when marked "disabled"? (to insert my own ASM drivers) how finicky would BSD be to the insertion of my own ints/irqs?
