Virtual COM for Mac OS

Question

IS there a way to create virtual COM ports in Mac OS and connect them to eachother?

Can you tell us why? It may help us provide better answers. – Zoredache Jun 05 '09 at 09:44 — Zoredache, Jun 05 '09 at 09:44

Maybe this thread on daemonforums.org contains a hint of the options you have:

I had an email from the author of netfwd to let me know that it doesn't support pty. He recommended I try socat, which worked perfectly!
 # socat GOPEN:/dev/ptyp0,ignoreeof TCP:10.0.1.93:10002
Then point the application at /dev/ttyp0

This does not work in High Sierra. Gives "Resource temporarily unavailable" error. Any ideas? – Daniele Testa Sep 08 '18 at 13:59
