Re: Misterhouse & Meteor Caller ID

I'm not, but it just spits the info out of the serial port doesn't it?
There
are plenty of examples of how to listen on the serial port.

Have a look in the code/examples directory at serial_port_examples.pl and
reading info from the serial port is as simple as:

# Set serialMeteor_* in mh.private.ini
$meteor = new Serial_Item(undef, undef, 'serialMeteor');

if($data = said $meteor)
{
# Do stuff here.
}

More info on initialising serial ports can be found at:
http://miserhouse.sf.net/mh.html
and click on objects, scroll down a bit to
find Serial_Item
