Hello list,
I finally found a target to program for. But probably it isn't the most
easiest thing to do for someone with my experience. (quite a newbie, I
would say;-). But this is what i want to do: Build a program for
navigation with a sailboat.
I did some searching and reading about using equipment inboard. I
decided to start with reading the NMEA-protocol from my GPS, and so
start with building a smaller program for just reading from a GPS and
later expand it from reading maps etc....
I know the NMEA-protocol is read through a serial port.
So here's the first issue: How do i program a serial port, reading and
sending data etc and use fake data for it, so i can test when i'm in the
train or something like that.
I'll use a keyspan for the connection, so it'll be through USB.
Any pointers, examples, advice, help would be very appreciated.
Regards Jasper.
(perhaps it would be easier to send offlist some advice, and i'll
combine it lateron. Because this question is quite general.)
