Hi Matthias, Would it be possible to have a WANT XON/OFF to choose this feature?

It was ok as long as I used a "real" serial lne. With USB sticks I've encoutnterd very mixed results ranging from "works well" to "works not at all". The current echo-based flow control turned out to be very realiable for all connection types and the timeouts that occured had a real reason. Hardware flow control is of course better, but requires 2 hardware pins. Enoch mentioned that he wrote something, but did not published a recipe for it, IIRC.
