I'm not, but it just spits the info out of the serial port doesn't it?
There
are plenty of examples of how to listen on the serial port.

Have a look in the code/examples directory at serial_port_examples.pl and
reading info from the serial port is as simple as:

# Set serialMeteor_* in mh.private.ini
$meteor = new Serial_Item(undef, undef, 'serialMeteor');

if($data = said $meteor)
{
# Do stuff here.
}

More info on initialising serial ports can be found at:
http://miserhouse.sf.net/mh.html
and click on objects, scroll down a bit to
find Serial_Item
