This article is howto written for Linux serial programs. Mainly discussed how to write serial ports and other in Linux environments
Computer equipment for communication procedures. The techniques discussed in the article include: standard I / O (only with delivery / receiving line)
), Asynchronous I / O, and programs waiting for input from multiple signal sources.
This article is the first upgrade version of the initial Linux Serial Programming Howto. Mainly upgraded some author's letter
