I have a custom application I am trying to write
that needs to communicate over modem to a remote
computer.  The "TTY" source distributed with the 
3.0 SDK loses characters even at _2400_ baud, so
it obviously is not a good starting point.  (More below.)

I don't need a terminal interface, since I will
be implementing a custom interface on the communications,
but I do need serial communications software that will 
handle a 9600 baud modem running with compression.  

1.  Where could I find source code for such a beast?

2.  Does the package support COM3/COM4 from the start,
    or will I have to add the support?

3.  Cost?  Distribution rights?

4.  Multi-tasking behavior?

5.  Error-correcting protocols included?

I did try implementing the timer suggested in the source code
for tty.c in the SDK.  The software was still routinely losing 
characters, even with a timer message every 1/60 second and a 
16K receive buffer.

Thanks.
