Again, I am looking for programmer input on the easiest way to redirect
a programs I/O (called from another program) so that it may be monitored
for loss of carrier, etc and can go through ANY serial port setup. 

Redirecting output is a sinch, but for it to actually work with any
program I need to be able to redirect input too and monitor it (or
continually check the carrier)

If I cannot do this, I may instead make the program used a shared library
of commands for serial i/o on a designated port. It all boils down to a
pain in the butt. :) Its a shame amigas don't have more support and libraries
for terminal i/o. Are there any PD libraries??

PS: I can't use AUX: or SER: so don't suggest them on any level.
