We've done this under NT4. We just open a file as normal with OPENR or OPENW
(for reading or writing to the port), but in the place of the file name use
COM1: or COM2: (not forgetting the colons). The only problem is if you try to
read from the port and it gets no data - it either hangs or has a very long
time out.
If you're having trouble email me at justin@ic.ac.uk and I'll dig out the
code for you.
