Wowzers -- I just read the docs for MX2 and I'm extremely
impressed!!  Fred sure added a lot since his earlier versions.

Anyway, one of the niftiest features is MX2's ability to
use custom device drivers for each process.  Fortunately,
there are four extra device drivers that are available --
isn't that the number of extra serial ports available on
DC-Port?

My question is this:  Are any device drivers available
for DC-Port under MX2?  Will DC-Port even work with MX2?

Finally, I've got one more question that doesn't relate
to MX2 necessarily.  How easy is it to poll the carrier
on each port?  Also, how easy is it to control the DTR lines?

Thanks in advance!
