OK, I am unclear on how baud rate gets set. I see the .c code has "void userinit()", but I don't know how that gets called.
I had tried "loadusr -W wj200_vfd baud 19200" (kind of random stab) and thought I was setting the baud, but I changed "baud" to gibberish here ("bxyzz") and no error is generated. So, chances are I'm not setting the baud rate- how do I do that?
