Anyone know of any scriptable asynchronous communication tools?
The closest so-far appears to be Kermit. It’s been around since CP/M, but apparently there’s still no centralised language reference and the syntax predates Perl.

Maybe then you need to move one stop up from scripting into something closer to actually programming. I’d be surprised if Python doesn’t have the library support on a Pi for dealing with both serial and GPIO I/O.
Yeah, I was hoping to avoid that, but it’s been heading that way for a few days now :}
I looked and Python has the library support for the GPIO and to do background threading to poll pins. My preference would be to go with a JVM language like Kotlin, but then I’m a programmer. Python, from the little that I’ve mucked about with it is really just one step in complexity from scripting. Maybe even easier, because some things in shell scripts are super difficult to do.
