Aspect script to watch serial data

[jberry]

I am looking for an Aspect script for Procomm 4.8 that can watch a serial port for incoming ascii data and when it sees a specific string, capture it and email it out then reset itself to do this again.

You can use either waitfor or when target to key off a certain string. You'll want to specify a timeout value (or an infinite value) for the waitfor command as it times out after 30 seconds if the string it is seeking is not received.

I have a couple scripts on the samples page of my site that show how to send email with Procomm, one that uses Procomm's built-in mail client and another that uses MAPI to push emails through Outlook or other MAPI-aware applications.
