This is good to hear...if there is anyone else out there using
the routines, with either success or failure stories, please let me know.
One design issue I wasn't really certain of...I wasn't sure whether
or not the serial_putchar() and serial_getchar() functions (in serialio.c)
should have (intrisic to the functions) the disable_serial() and enable_
serial() functions, or whether the user should manage the enable/disable
separately. Such as, disable, then transmit all your data, then enable.
I left it as the latter (the user should write his own wrapper). Any
thoughts/comments on whether it should be the former?
