SERIAL PORT "PIPE"

I'm looking for a program which will read from one serial port, dumping
what it reads to a file, WHILE an application is printing out the other 
serial port.  What I want to do is connect the two ports together so I
can capture what is heading towards the printer (which will then be 
downloaded to a larger workstation.)

I may attempt to write something if noone has anything like this. 
Any suggestions on techniques?  I'm very capable with Mac and interrupt
routine programming, but just don't have too much time on my hands to do
the trial and error investigating.
