Anyone know of any scriptable asynchronous communication tools?
The closest so-far appears to be Kermit. It’s been around since CP/M, but apparently there’s still no centralised language reference and the syntax predates Perl.

No, it needs to be serial communication. My use case is talking to a CNC.
Edit: fat fingers: “ea” -> “to a”
lol got it. Definitely not email then
That would be fun tho
I used expect a lifetime ago to reliably talk to a bunch of very strange ISDN modems.

I think something like expect also exists for more modern languages, but tcl is still easy enough to learn (just a little unusual, everything is a string)
That’s several recommendations for expect. I’ll start digging. Thank you.
