Enrico.  Thanks, I think setserial was the missing link we were looking for.  
Well at least on Linux.  I don’t appear to have a version available on OS X.

A useful resource on Serial communications that I’ve referenced over the years 
is “Serial Programming Guide for POSIX Operating Systems by Sweet.  I don’t 
know where exactly to find it these days, so here is a link to my pdf copy:
<https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1426853/Serial%20Programming%20Guide%20for%20POSIX%20Operating%20Systems%20Ed5R6.pdf
 
<https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1426853/Serial%20Programming%20Guide%20for%20POSIX%20Operating%20Systems%20Ed5R6.pdf>>

Let me know if you find a version newer than the 5th Edition Version 6 that I 
have.
