No, cu(1) doesn't. When I first started using cu(1), I spent quite a bit
of time looking for that elusive "serial output capture" option (manual,
internet, /usr/share/doc,..). In the end I found out that I could simply
redirect cu(1)'s output via the shell. So when it comes to cu(1),
mainatainers should really stop using terms like "logging" and
"capturing", and use "redirection" instead. That would be much clearer,
and much les intimidating to "newbies". A simple example also wouldn't
hurt:

# cu -l /dev/tty00 -s 19200 | tee soekris.out
