Hi all...

I was wondering if anyone had any source code to sample a continous
stream of data, throwing away (/dev/null) what wasnt sampled.  Basically
i have a continous stream of data and I would like to wait until I
get a specific character, and then capture the next 13 characters.

Any suggestions? Im trying not to re-invent the wheel or do something the
long way....

bye for now but not for long...
