/dev/tty in windows

[Wybo Dekker]

under linux I use

STDIN.reopen('/dev/tty')

what is the equivalent for Windows?

And where can I find documentation about the differences between OS's?

file.open("COM1:")

That's the serial port if I'm not mistaken. I'd try "CON" or "CON:".

Kind regards

file.open("COM1:")

Hum... no, that would be file.open("/dev/ttyS0"). /dev/tty is the
console, not the serial port.

That said, I don't know the answer to the original question, sorry.
