I am looking for a routine in 'c' for OS2 than can scan the incoming
data on a COM port for a particular sting.. when it finds said sting is
copys it off and then executes another program or itself (if I can make
it a TSR/PM minimized) depending on the data it receives...

ie:

look on COM1 for: XPQW1100
if COM1.input = XPQRW1100 do.. 'x'

input?
