Re: Dashboard
I wrote a small dashboard interface program in QBASIC, which read the data from the serial port, mangled (processed) it, and stored the output in text files.
Then I wrote a program in Java, which read those text files and displayed the data on screen in a fancily-formatted window. I used the AWT for graphics, 'cause I don't know how to program Swing yet.
Btw, to improve the speed of text-files for communication, I created a RAM disk. The output files are outputted from BASIC into the RAM disk. I find the speed to be no problem.
