Sometime Today, noel seq assembled some asciibets to say:
Does linux have support for telex machines/telex data. I have an old 8088 based telex machine (diskless) which receives input from the serial port (9 pin) which i would like to do away with and connect the telex line to my linux box. Any pointers in this regard will be
This is something that I would love to work on. I don't know if there is any software that does it yet, but basically, you'd need a telex driver to attach to your serial port. Shouldn't be too hard if one knew what kind of data needs to be sent/read. Can you find out what kind of data goes through the serial port for a telex?
We mostly send and receive text data, but do not know in what format does it send. You can contact me if you want to see it.
Noel.
