If your programming (lower) com port is COM7 as presented by the Windoze
(no)control panel, you should be using /dev/ttyS6. 

Unix device entries start numbering at zero, because it makes sense. Windoze
com ports start at 1 because the operating system was originally designed by
accountants (now designed by lawyers).

Many tools cross-compiled for cygwin provide access to serial ports through
a hokey library based emulation, which is why you don't see /dev/ttySx
entries (unless you take specific steps to create them).

Read: not seeing /dev/ttySx entries is not a problem unless you're grumpy
that it wasn't done properly. >:|

Cheers,
