Parallel Port Trigger
#12
Parallel Port reader works great. I am just putting the finishing touches on it and I will post the code.

How would I go about exporting the program to run on non-QM machine. I need to know what to do with the hwinterface control. Could you please give a detailed explanation how to register the osx without QM if that is possible.

Thanks.

So the Parallel Port is actually a pretty neat tool. I can wire any old button up to the parallel port and blammo...extra external control for the computer. So far I have figured out how to successfully read the 8 Data pins, I guess I am supposed to be able to use four control pins and maybe the five status pins too, but I haven't gotten that far yet. Basically I can add eight switches...any type of buttons, momentary, small, large, on/off and use them to fire off programs. If you really wanted you could have an on/off switch maximize a screen when on and minimize when off...so many possibilities!

Thanks for all your help Gintaras!
