I'm looking ofr help and/or leads on how to capture data coming in on a com port. This is a noaa weather feed from a satellite receiver which goes to a box which which has one rs232 input and about 8 rs232 outputs. I think the data just streams out whether anything is listening or not. I would like to receive this on a com port on a freebsd box and listen for key words and perform a function when it sees a particular string. Is there something in the ports that could be adapted for this or could it bee done in a shell script.
