I use the GPIO modes of the FTDI chips occasionally, and not having the Serial driver take over the part is nice.

How tough is that to write a driver for? And for what platform are you doing it? (if you don't mind my asking)

Mac OS X

I have used libusb drivers for it in the past. Available here <http://www.intra2net.com/en/developer/libftdi/index.php>

You do a bit of setup work to find and put the part into GPIO mode then just write bytes to the device.

They have plenty of examples in source.

Wow, I didn't know that existed; that is VERY cool! Thanks for the pointer. I'll be using that.
