Mr. Russell, May I ask a side question here? On a couple of other lists to which I belong, one of which involves the development of the freedos project, there were questions about how a USB to serial adapter manages the communications associated, by which a mean port definitions that a serial port used to use. If one is trying to access a device connected with a USB to serial adapter, what port does USB use? for example if the program would talk to a serial device on com 4, how would you achieve the same goal via a USB to serial adapter? thanks, Kare On Sun, 10 May 2020, Stewart C.

And here goes another thread off topic again, started by another "back in the day" post.
It didn't start as "back in the day": it was about why my ~2016 ASUS motherboard running Linux didn't recognize its serial port. It turned out to be a standards problem.
cheers, Stewart
