Does anyone ported JRKerr's driver and example programs from Windows to Linux?

From What I Saw of there example code, in this case the QBasic Example it simply sends out commands via the COM Port
e.g. Open "COM1:19200,N,8,1,BIN,CD0,CS0,DS0,OP0,RS,TB1024,RB1024" For Random As #1
Print #1, cmdstr
There for the port would not be too complicated, however these things always take longer then expected

I wrote an article for Circuit Cellar Inc. using these guys, and I wrote Linux serial-port code to talk to the chips.
I also drive these chips from the MiniRoboMind using a nice (If I do say so myself) double-layer PCB I had built for it.
