I may be able to help out in a DOS project (though I seem to be migrating quickly to Linux as it stabilizes...) Perhaps the GPL'ed program term would be useful in serial multiplexing applications. It's quite nice for Unix boxes, letting all kinds of streams coexist (even redirecting TCP/IP ports over serial without the overhead of SLIP/PPP). I believe I've heard someone on comp.os.linux or gnu.misc.discuss talk about hacking DES into term, so it sounds doable. I'm not sure how much the code assumes Unix serial device handing, but I'll have a look at the code. Joe
on a similar note the DNET protocol for amiga is quite nice. It comes with a nice socket like library. Works quite efficiently but contains no information about addressing (it is strictly point to point so it doesnt use any addressing).
