[DIYbio] OpenPCR + Terminal: Any leads?

Hey all,
Of those who own and love their OpenPCR, has anyone tried using Terminal
to send programs over the wire, or to get real-time output from the machine?

I'm running Ubuntu, and I'm wondering if I can use echo and/or cat with
piping to send commands directly to the device (which is currently
/dev/sde, mounted as /media/OPENPCR).

The end goal would be to translate this totally manual approach into a
python script, perhaps with a GUI to match eventually, as a way to
replace the Adobe Air interface. Although I got the Air interface
working with Tito and Josh's help, really the problem isn't going away;
shortly before release of the OpenPCR, Adobe cut support for Air in Linux.

Would be nice to have an Open Source language working for my Open Source
PCR machine. :)
