Use Pefences (sic) to set up the serial paramters.
But to get them To work i think ya must reboot...
unless ya change them BEFOR ya mount AUX:

there are 2+ VI clones out, Stevi, and another..

There's an EMACS clone on FF354 (Or close) with source.. It 
SHOULD be able to work over AUX:

It didsn't work as it was compiled on disk tho)
(With AUX: that is..)

No idea, one with a Termcap option would be nice tho.
