If that's the one I wrote, it's at:

 ftp://ftp.visi.com/users/grante/python/

There's also a file there called lcom.py that is a fairly dumb
"terminal" program using GTk that shows how PosixSerial.py can
be used.  PosixSerial.py is basically just a friendly wrapper
around the termios stuff.

You might be able to use the "expect" module to to fancier
scripting stuff (time-outs on expected input, etc.).
