Time flies! 15 years ago, on 2010-03-18, my first upload to the Debian archive was accepted.

I owned a Zyxel G-202 USB WiFi fob that needed said fi...

For uninteresting reasons I need very regular 58Hz pulses coming out of an RS-232 Tx line: the time between each pulse should be as close to 1/58s as possible. I produce each pulse by writing an \xFF byte to the device. The start bit is the only active-voltage bit being sent, and that produces my pulse. I wrote this...
