in response to your gowear hack post as follows

in response to your post on http://bodybugglinux.blogspot.com/2009/07/command-line-extraction-tool.html


Hi there! I'm late to this party, but I'm so glad this utility exists (even if I haven't gotten it to work quite yet!).

I've got python and the numpy libraries installed in a Win 32 system. I dropped bmhack into the python26 folder for ease of use. When I try to call it with python.exe bmhack-718b.py --fromSerial COM7: --clear I get the following error:

File "bmhack-z718b.py", line 27, in
import serial
ImportError: No module named serial

I installed the gowearfit drivers some time back. Any clues?

I'm using python 2.6.4 instead of 2.6.2, but I didn't think that would crash the program.

You have to go to
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/pyserial
download
pyserial 2.5-rc2
extract the compressed file to the
python directory
it will come out in its own directory called pyserial-2.5-rc2
take all those files and dump them into your python directory
C:\Python26

then run
"python setup.py install" from the command line

This will install the serial communication
