I need to do buffered I/O through the COM ports in C.  It will
eventually be done in Microsoft C and at the moment I am using
Borlands compiler.  It would be ideal if I could just open a
COM port as a stream and let the operating system do all the 
buffering for me.  I would also prefer not doing BIOS calls but
if I have to then so be it.

Does anyone have any examples in C?  Suggestions would be
welcomed.  Feel free to either  send me mail direct or to
post responses.  If you make a post please also send email to
me at  "pitonyak@cis.ohio-state.edu" if possible.

Thanks in advance,

Andy
