I need some help with the serial port.  I need to know how to set the
serial port in C to a one byte buffer.  Currently, the buffer is set by
preferences to 512 bytes.

The major reason for this one byte buffer is so I can hook up a "simple"
terminal to the amiga through the serial port and say:

newcli ser:

That would make the amiga into a multi-user system, but right now,
since the buffer is 512 bytes, I have to enter 512 bytes of data before the
computer responds.

I have tried setserial, but it doesn't seem to do the job...

Thanks for any help...
