I'm happy to report that A-Talk III Release 1.1 is fully compliant with
the EuroDevCon "Multiple Serial Spec".  New UNITs and DEVICES can be 
accessed from icons (TOOL and PROJECT, by setting DEVICE=<name> and
UNIT=<nn> in the ToolType), and from the CLI with the following syntax:

ATalk3 [FROM <name>] [DEVICE <name>] [UNIT <nn>]

Until a "reliable" method to figure out how many ports are available is 
devised, we won't support "dynamic" selection of UNITs through menus.
