Yes, but I don't know how.   Basic can make system calls so you should be able to do it.  I have a book on PC automation with basic programs but its PC based.
I'll pull it out and have a look but I guess it wont translate to Amiga Basic.

Okay. No INP() or OUT() commands in Amiga Basic but I think this might help:

Arex or Python is the way to go.  Be much faster than ABasic in any case.  i guess.
