Hi all,

[comport] has just been enhanced with a few features that may be useful to know about. It's available on Deken as version 1.3.

Most of these additions are designed to facilitate the use of USB serial devices (e.g Arduino).

The new features allow to:

- extend the valid baudrates to those allowed by the OS, up to 4MBds.

- disable auto-opening the serial device at startup: [comport -1] won't try to open anything.

- enumerate only USB devices (this avoids trying to open problematic devices, such as bluetooth related ones) using [ports usb( and [devices usb(.

- "lock" the opened device, preventing other [comport]s from opening it (other [comport]s must also use locking for this to work). Just send [lock 1( before opening.

Plus, the help patch has been rewritten to be more readable.

Hope it can be useful to someone (other than me;-)
