I am writing an external in which there is a 3rd party callback 

function that runs whenever data is received. I want to spit this 

data out whenever it comes in, and I don't have much experience with 

this kind of external timing. What is the correct way for me to spit 

this data out and still be friends with the Scheduler?

I was considering having the callback put the data in some kind of 

buffer, and then reading it out with a clock, but it seems as if I 

might run into some sort of buffer issues that way (data comes in 

faster than it is read out by the clock function).

This object would function much like the serial object does, I would 

imagine. How does that object cope with data transmitted vs. output
