Bob Wilson posted a message some time ago with some C source lines:

        if ((comfd = open("com2", O_RDWR | O_TEXT)) <= 0) {
            fprintf(stderr, "Cmd: Unable to open terminal\n");
            exit(1);
        }

He stated, this doesnt function under b17. open hangs...

It seems, that this doesn't work under b18 either. Is there a patch?

Regards,
Markus
