 Uh, what about Terminal Programs which save different Speed/Parity/etc.
settings for different phonenumbers? What about my MIDI interface? It would
be enough to set the standard Serial port. Generally I don't agree with
you on this point. I use my serial port for MIDI, and communications, so
I need different settings.
