Hi there,

I've found a few examples of being able to control the parallel port over the ethernet. (May be an excuse to use Linux at work )

A simple method is to use some C scripts to control the port, then CGI from an html webpage to control those.

Basically, can TCC access the ports like C does? and would I be able to do the CGI scripts in TCC (saves having to install GCC)

Any suggestions welcome.

Never mind! With the help of people on the DSL IRC channel, found a way of doing it.

Use precomiled porgrams that access the port and just call them in cgi.

Or include the library files from C in TCC programs.
