Howdy,

Am hoping someone might take an interest in porting this Perl module to
NetBSD.

The LabJack is a USB data acquisition device that only costs about $112 and
is very handy. If anyone who knows how to make the port should take an interest
I would be happy to buy them a LabJack (theirs to keep) for making the effort.

The CPAN package name is...

Device::LabJack

...and the device itself has its own website at...

http://www.labjack.com

The Perl module installs okay on WinXP and it is supposed to also support
Linux.

The output from CPAN on NetBSD 2.0.2 is as follows....

   CPAN.pm: Going to build C/CD/CDRAKE/Device-LabJack-0.02.tar.gz

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
