gnupic: Thread: Reverse Engeneering in PicStart Plus

Does anybody know about any software to spy a Serial Port in Windows?

I want to see what is sent to PicStart Plus in some commands that we
don't have in picp docs.

A software to spy what income and outgo throught the comm port?

No, but you can run the software under Wine or vmware. Then, a simple
strace can be used to spy all cammunications. Or I made a pogram long time
ago to spy the serial port and print all the data.

So, I will try to make a Linux software to do a "pass-through" function.

Then I am planning to connect a M$-Windoze micro in a comm port and a
PicStart in another. And my program could be a digipeater, showing the
communications in the comm ports.

Yeh!  Many many thanks to all.
Thanks to who sent me some codes, C programs, and general helps.

Portmon was the perfect tool to my problem here.

I just connected PicStart Plus to a Windows-2k and used MPLAB 6.

I can see all comm between host and programmer.

Protmon can save a log file anytime, it saves in text format, with <TAB>
separators, in some collums.

I used a pic16F629, a blank part,  and I did the follows procedures:

1 . enable programer
2 - blank check
3 - erase flash device
4 - disable programmer

Then, I did logs with a pic16f873, programmed part:

1 - enable programer
2 - black check - returned not blank
3 - erase flash device
4 - blank check - return blank ok
5 - disable programer - equal the other. - not logged

I am senting more detais to this list tonight.
