Hi, net workers,

Some time ago I've seen a binary called LPTX here on the net, whose mission
was to redirect the output to LPT?: to a file. Now, on a very normal
application, the need was there to redirect COM?: (i.e the serial ports)
to a file.

Is there any COMX-like binary out there that fits the requirements?

(Yeah, unfortunately DOS 3.2 doesn't accept something like

		MODE COM1:=LPT1:

    or          MODE filename=COM1: )


Regards,
Emanuel Machado
