[WestTLUG] writing to another machine's /dev/ttyS0... how?

[bob]

What exactly are you trying to do?   Are you trying to exchange information 
between machines over a serial link?    Do you want to do this inside some 
custom scripting?    If so you can readily open up a serial port from inside 
a Tcl/Tk script and read and write much as you would to a file.
