  Modified files:
    en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/serialcomms chapter.sgml 
  Log:
  - Add an <example> and use a calloutlist for the /etc/ttys section
    instead of creating a new subsection for each field.  The output is
    much more succinct and legible.
  - Add a note about FreeBSD 5.0 and devfs that obviates the 'Making
    Device Special Files' section.
  - Remove reference to a book that we don't have any bibliographical
    information for and that is a bit tangential to the subject at hand
    (RS-232 Bible).
  - Add missing words to make complete sentences.
  - Simplify discussion of null-modem and "straight" serial cables.
  - Consistently use a replaceable 'N' for the last character of
    terminal devices instead of interspersing ? and X.
  - Remove duplicate 'See the sio(4) manual page for more information.'
    lines.  One of these is quite sufficient per section.
  - Remove more duplicate information that is unnecessary since this
    chapter has been reorganized.
  - Enclose a hint in the <tip> tag.
  
  This chapter still needs work.
