You wouldn't want to use the AUX driver (even if you could). It won`t
work at speed and is not interrupt driven (given the rest of DOS, that may
not matter).

The AUX driver is tiny. All it does is call the BIOS (not useful). You
need to write a COM port driver - oneidea might be to borrow one out
of something else (e.g. Kermit).
