I'm interested in knowing if there's an easy way to get at the signals
RI (Ring Indicate) and CD (Carrier Detect) from the RS-232 port.  There's
got to be some way, some C function or something, but I just can't find
anything about it in the stuff that I have.  What's the secret, the magic
incantation you need to utter to get this to work?

Thanks.
