I have an application. I want to write an external command for it which talks
to the serial port (reads AND writes). The only problem is that the app already
has the serial port open, and I don't want to disturb it in any way. I also
don't want to get locked out because the port is open (I know, damnit!).
Is there any way to do this? I haven't thought about it deeply yet, and I'd
appreciate it enormously if I never had to :-)
