    Why not a port number? I believe bpq and msys both used that sceme. Maybe
    xnos too!

    Chuck,
    Yep, we agree completely, your point is entirely a valid one.

    We've picked up your point and taken it one step further. We've asked the
    question as to why we need seperate device and portnames, let alone having a
    standard for portname.

    We're proposing getting rid of portname completely and just having device
    name.

    regards
    Terry
