Utilizing a PalmV as additional input device :o)
The touch screen of a palm V sends pen coordinates to serial port. I converted the data to midi and controlled some midi music apps via palm. A lot of possibilities with a more sophisticated BASIC interface - bidirectional!

  1. !/usr/local/bin/sbasic -g

'

 ' Using pen() function
 '
 print "Use MemoPad key to break "
 print "or 'x' to exit"
 open "com1:" AS #1
 pen on
 while pen(0)=0:wend
 pset pen(4),pen(5)
 while 1
    k=inkey$
    if k then
        if k="x" then goto QUIT
    fi
    if pen(0)
    pos="x"+pen(4)+"y"+pen(5)
        print #1,pos
    fi
 wend
 label QUIT
 pen off
 close #1

the Palm com port is running with 9600,8,1
