I've got a special problem :

I want to write a windows-application, that communicates
over the serial port, but I don't want to do that way like
MS's Terminal : looking for free time in the system with
PeekMessage(...) and looking in this time, if something
has arrived at the port.
My programmm has to sleep, and if something arrives, i want
Windows to send a message to my application, which is then
reacting in a proper way.  

IS this overall possible, does somebody have an idea to 
manage this (perhaps writing a new comm.drv?)  ???????
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????



Please mail your ideas directly to me, i will collect 
and post, if there are good ideas !!!

forward thanx !
bye !
