It's an USB device
The driver is effectively a PCSC
I've downloaded the mac driver
I can connect and make some "dialog"with the card reader  through the  
terminal, but nothing happens in rev with
  - open driver
  - read from driver

I hope somebody on the list has gone a little further ... !
When I read your answer, I'am a little desperated ...

I had some hope end of june, because there was a patch for the mac  
driver to download on the website
But it gives no difference
They say that it would work with FireFox, but it's not true
Thereforfe I'm trying to make a data reader and viewer from within Rev.

Anybody else has experience with such a driver ???
