Curt,

There's no reason you can't create a script to do that yourself, which
then runs Xastir:

You presume generously upon my scripting skills ... I know the
following needs correction but is the essence:

#!/bin/bash
#
# I believe the following sets the port parameters for Minicom.
# And it also tells the gui to echo keyboard strokes?
# What of this would be necessary in a non-gui script?

echo -ne '\xC0\xFF\xC0' > /dev/ttyACM0

# Opens Minicom in gui mode with port comm settings.

minicom -D /dev/ttyACM0 -b 115200 -o

# In manual gui mode one has to hit "Enter" to get to
# the "cmd:" prompt - would that be necessary in command
# line mode? If so, how would that be accomplished?

"USBKISS on"

# to exit Minicom

CTRL-A X

# to open Xastir

xastir &

Also take a look at the "kiss-off.pl" script in xastir/scripts/
directory...  You may be able to do something similar and code that into
your Xastir startup script, avoiding use of Minicom to set things up.
Does the TNC come out of KISS mode when you reset it?  I'm trying to
figure out whey you'd constantly need to put it into KISS mode.  If
possible, just put it in that mode and forget about it.
