Hey,

I'm writing an app which will talk to industrial scales through a serial
port. I'm using wxWindows to form a simple GUI, but now i need to set up
the serial port part of things.

What's the best way to do this? I don't know enough C to write it in C,
so it'll have to be python (and speed isn't an issue here). Any ideas? a
quick scan of the modules list didn't reveal anything special...

I'm hoping someone  out there has written a module which will help me..

Thanks in advance ;)
