My thanks to the many correspondents who suggested either "cu" or
"minicom".

Having been exposed to SysV-flavored systems some years ago, I was aware
of the existence of "cu", but the BBC had indicated that it was not to
be found.

It did, however, find "minicom".

Now all I need to do is figure out how to use it (when it claims

	minicom: WARNING: configuration file not found, using defaults
	modprobe: Can't locate module /dev/ttyS1
	minicom: cannot open /dev/ttyS1: No such file or directory

Hmmm......)

Thanks again....!

Peace,
david
