That could prove... interesting. One way I can see would be to rename /dev/aserialport to /dev/avirtualterminal, but that sounds like a can of worms. MDK likes to recreate /dev on a regular basis, and at the level your app uses the interfaces might not be the same. Have you talked to whoever wrote the app? I hope they have a really good excuse for not just making it a text app that you can run anywhere. -- Richard Urwin
