Thank you, Donal, for the comment. Tests: * As the issue only appears with special hardware, this is imho not possible Docs: * IMHO the docs are sufficient. On the open man page, the windows formats for serial ports are specified as "comx:" and "\\.\comx" which are the supported formats by the patch. So we do not need an alert, that "exotic but possible" file names for serial ports are not supported by hardware not supporting the double open (which is rare). * The only enhancement on the man page would be to remove all the Windows 95 and Windows 98 parts. I was ready to commit today, but have test failures. I have to check, if they are due to the patch or not... Sorry, will take a week (I am on travel). Harald
