Device::ParallelPort 1.00

Device::ParallelPort is a Parallel Port Driver for Perl.

SYNOPSIS

my $port = Device::ParallelPort->new();
$port->set_bit(3,1);
print $port->get_bit(3) . "n";
print ord($port->get_byte(0)) . "n";
$port->set_byte(0, chr(255));

A parallel port driver module. This module provides an API to all parallel ports, by providing the ability to write any number of drivers. Modules are available for linux (both directly and via parport), win32 and a simple script version.
NOTE - This actual module is a factory class only - it is used to automatically return the correct class and has not other intelligence / purpose.

DRIVER MODULES

NOTE - You MUST load one of the drivers for your operating system before this module will correctly work - they are in separate CPAN Modules.
