Well I've been going over the program again, and what
it does (basically) is this (don't mind the parameters
and stuff, 'cause I left some of them out):

f3=open(/dev/tty00) /*for reading*/

f4=open(/dev/tty00) /*for writing*/

while(somethingToSend)
   /*A call to a checkroutine, but I forgot the name*/
     write(f3,message);

/* The checkroutine */
while(someStatus)
     read(f3,reply)

I have to get this working on a PC.
I have been told (in this mailinglist) that I should
use a special package for serial communication for PC.
Can anybody help me with this?
One more thing, the original program was using
<sgtty.h> which I have replaced with <termios.h> and
<sys/ioctl.h>. If there is something wrong with this,
than please advise about it to!
