Say I'm not much inclined to use it, being GUI-challenged. wget is my browser of choice.
If you have access to Google, search for the following Usenet posting, for example :
UnHy6.600095$JT5.16435354@news20.bellglobal.com
Now what kind of an URL would I give wget to go after that? http://groups.google.com/<something>=\ UnHy6.600095$JT5.16435354@news20.bellglobal.com
Well anyway, you have probably already distilled all the sense that is to be made of it, thanks. 8251? Isn't that what they used in 8-bit PC's before the 16450? 8-/

Still, though, anything I could do with program code about this, I can do with setserial, and even explain how to do it. Isn't it reasonable to expect that a programmer would be willing to learn how to use the peculiar tools of its chosen OS?
OTOH she had warts, and if native SetCommState will take any dam' bauderate and do something vaguely appropriate with it, maybe the builtin one should too.
I guess I can take a bash at it, if no one else wants to.
