:I use a Supra internal modem that runs a modem0.device.  Any time I want
:to use a program that needs the serial.device I have to run a conversion
:program on it (it doesn't work with Handshake).  I would find it
:helpful if you didn't require programs to use the serial.device.  Maybe
:make it the default but include a command line option for other devices.

    serial.device, the Getty stuff and UUCP, at least *my* UUCP stuff
    should work just fine on it.
