Sorry, but note also that if you are going to use Posix style termio
calls, you need to use the Posix device name (/dev/ttySx).
Are you sure Brian? I am running Cygwin on WinXP, and using stty on
/dev/ttyX fails,
whereas on /dev/comX it works (where X is valid of course).
Similarly open("/dev/ttyX",O_RDWR) returns -1, but returns a valid file
ID with open("/dev/comX",O_RDWR).
My understanding is, that on a PC, psuedo-device files of the form
"/dev/ttyX" do not exist?
What gave you that idea?
$ ls /dev/tty1
/dev/tty1
But Brian suggested using /dev/ttySx (i.e. '/dev/ttyS0'). These
are supported.
$ ls /dev/ttyS0
/dev/ttyS0
