Hi, I am working on a project that uses a TI Explorer and a Mac to communicate with an external device (a robot) and for that I had to implement my own serial IO interface on the Mac (in MACL). When doing that I found out that the TI, when reading a line from the serial port with read-line, consumes the character #\Newline and also the character #\Linefeed that follows it. The Mac's read-line, on the other hand, doesn't. The definition of the function read-line is to read until a #\Newline is encountered. My question is, what is happening on the TI behind the scenes that causes the #\Linefeed to be consumed? Is the definition of the read-line function on the TI different than on the Mac? Thanks,
