I *think* what I'm looking for can be found in /windows/system/comm.drv.
I rechecked the SDK doc and found that DRVs are a form of DLL.  Of course,
this happens after I post to the net...  Now all I have to do is get the
messages from the DLL into Actor... (anybody out there bite on that one?
The DRV either uses PostMessage or I have to poll it, I haven't found out
which yet)

Thanks to all
