Hi,
I would like to write an application on minix, to send and receive
voice over tcp, received from a voice modem. So the questions are:
-Is there any sample c code to interface with the comm port?
-I choose minix because I think it has lower overhead than others OS,
and I will need all the processor time I can get, is minix a good
choice?
thanks, any pointer appreciated

PS: I know I posted this question before, but thought that maybe I
didnt explain myself or that, because it was Saturday night, everyone
was out having fun, and not writing some code...or reading newsgroups.

You might look at
serial-ip (8)
slip (8)
kermit (9)
and the associated code.

The only good alternative choice here isn't free.
It's LynxOS.
