MAC to Arduino?

Projects General Guidance

I wonder what would be the easiest way to send data to the arduino on a MAC? I plan on sending from the RemoteBuddy application I love, very handy. The idea is to have my Wii controller for a few things, and one is to send something to the Arduino Serial port, and the Arduino code will take care of the rest. :wink:

The RemoteBuddy already works with the Wii controller without problems, and I can assign each button to an action or script, but I have no clue on how to make this work in a way that I can send data to the Arduino board.

This is just a silly project, so I won't cry if there's no easy way, just wondering for now. :grin:

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure what a "MAC" is, but I'm pretty familier with the Mac.

Since the Arduino basically emulates a serial port, you can just setup macros in RemoteBuddy to send terminals commands like "echo 'whatever' > /dev/tty.usbserialXXXX".

Txs bud, now I need to figure out how to do that. :blush: :fearful:
