Hi Ed, Just some ideas: Maybe you can add some more functionality to the TTY layer so that it becomes symmetric with regard to Host and Device side. For example that you can send a "RING" to a modem, and not only receive a "RING." This can be very interesting for embedded products where you want to emulate a modem through an USB device side driver. The official FreeBSD USB stack does not support device side drivers, but the one in P4 does. --HPShome | help
