NOOB - create virtualcomport

Hi! I am new! I am taking some firsts step in processing I am working on a graduation project here in Italy. I have to interface roborealm with processing to send from roborealm some commands to compute in processing and send orders to arduino.
example, If there is a movement my robot can say with tts library something (just an helloworld to understand how it works).

here it is my hello world with processing:

( i can't post an active link before 5 messeges  Tongue)

I know that opencv is better and more efficient but I am not really a programmer, and I don't know how to include opencv in a processing sketch and how to use it. (there is a post in vision section)

I am very impressed by the capabilities of this framework, if processing can be named like this. It is incredible to find ELIZA library opencv library tts library...We can build a very intelligent and sensored bot.

One way would be to use two physical ports tied together with a 'null modem' cable.

If you aren't able to buy one, you can follow the DB9 wiring diagram.
