2003-07-02 -+- curious -+- nothanks@nothanks.org -+- what would this be used for? i'm totally clueless about something like this but interested in what purpose it serves.

thank you -+- 24.193.238.207 = Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.1; FreeBSD 5.0-RELEASE) 2003-07-14 -+- Bob Smith -+- bsmith@linuxtoys.org -+- I used it as way to snag code from an IR remote. The input to the 1 bit came from a Radio Shack IR decoder.
We also used it once to "watch a watchdog". The watchdog reset on a Linux appliance seemed erratic. We wanted to see if our pet of the watchdog timer really occured at the interval we thought it should.
One reader reported using it with a 576K serial port to capture framing information from a custom video capture card.
