Matthias,
vielen Dank!
It works now. Your questions were mostly about unrelated code that
somehow survived as I stripped things down to make the example.
Removing CRTSCTS did the trick.
I see that you are using non-canonical reads. Do you know if canonical
works on Cygwin? In my finished program I will indeed be reading input
from the UART. But "res =3D read(fd,inbuf,255);" returns on several
occations when it contents are not terminated by \n, \r or 0. As you
probably see from my code, I have copied the Serial HOWTO code.
