I would like to know if there is any public domain software or utility to capture data from the serial ports (COM1 and COM2), and send them to different buffers which can then be accessed by a 'C' program I am writing? If not, can anyone help in writing the appropriate interrupt handlers? The data would be arriving at 1200bps on each port, and it is important that everything gets captured, and sent to the buffers. The program that reads the buffers would be running in the background of MS Windows, so I can run other applications in the foreground.
