Right, a quick google got me this, http://www.serialio.com/support/jspInstall.htm
It appears to be a commercial product that TRi will have paid for, https://serialio.com/store/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=serialport

I'm not too keen on purchasing this only to find it's not the complete fix.

hmmm....i wouldn't either.   and i had such high hopes.  oh well.

I'm just starting with PLCs in a small course I've inscribed myself. I have two major doubts.

- Is there any software capable of simulate a ladder program working without a PLC connected? I don't have access to a PLC and a program like that would be handy. Is there anything for PPC?

You can find a really good PLC simulator at http://www.thelearningpit.com/ called LogixPro.  It simulates the RS Logix software for Allen Bradleys PLC/5 and SLC 500.  It has simulations like a door opener and silo simulator, etc.  Thes sims have motor switches, limit switches, photo sensors, etc with I/O addresses.  You program the ladder logic to make the simulations work.  

Highly Recommended.

Anyone in the development team been experimenting?

i certainly hope so.  i've found only one total linux solution in plc's (SoftPLC ) and its too expensive to buy just to play with.  this is really holding me back because i use linux exclusively.

win4lin works but its slowwwwww.
