WinUAE serial options
« on: January 06, 2013, 04:07:40 AM »
Hi all,

i was wondering if anyone has a clue how to enable the telnet serlal output in WinUAE and get it to work.

All I ever see as options for the serial port are "none" and "TCP://0.0.0.0:1234".

Even if I set option in the config file to an IP address and port, it can't be selected and doesn't work. I'm obviously missing something.

Any clues???

Thanks Thomas.

Actually, it didn't seem to wait, maybe serial output does. I will test it out.
Thanks for the pointer.

Like Thomas said, that is what it is for. You don't need an actual serial port which is why I was trying to get it working. I tested it with ROMWack and it worked fine. I used a separate telnet program on windows rather than the command-line version connecting to localhost:1234 and all was good as suggested by Thomas.

... not sure about redirecting SER: to PAR: but if you are doing your own debugging, just use the parallel port version of the debug lib. I think it's ddebug.lib using a prefix of "d" instead of "k" for the function names.
