Jack, I think you're wrong. I have had to increase the size of the serial
buffer on occasion, but when I did the lost characters problem always went
away. I think the Amiga serial device sends an Xoff at some fraction (80%?
90%?) of the buffer size. Sometimes, especially with packet services, it
just takes too long for the host to get the message, but increasing the
buffer size usually fixes it.

        Willy.
