wxCTB is a common API for using serial (com) ports cross-platform.
Currently it is only for Linux/Win32, but I'm keen to get it working for OS X, since I'd like to be able to use it in BlitzMax on my Mac with a usb-serial adapter.

I'm hoping that since OS X is getting more POSIXy all the time that the Linux drivers might work with a bit of tweaking...

If anyone is interested in helping out, here's the place to do it !
