Maybe somebody can help...

I'm trying to talk to a PC's serial (COM) port from ACLWIN 3. Has anybody
managed to achieve this that you know of?  And if so, I'd really like to
know how...

Basically, I need to drive a video camera which talks a special serial
protocol, and plugs into one of the PC's COM ports.  I can do this from a
Mac almost trivially, but I'd far rather use ACLWIN if I can, because I've
got a bunch of other stuff I'd like to attach to it.

Regards, Stuart
