AFAIK MacOS was just another UNIX, and in UXIX writing to a serial port was just writing to a file. Are you telling me MacOS had no shell scripting capabilities to write to a file via the command line? Even MS-DOS could do that.
- lmz 2y agoMac OS X is a UNIX (of sorts). Mac OS classic (as in the article) is most definitely not.
- Rinzler89 2y agoSo that version of MAcOS had no possibility of some command line shell scripting?
- Sesse__ 2y agoThere was no command line at all.
