        I am writing a BBS door program in TurboC and would like to know
        if there is a way to determine what baud, parity and number of
        bits a com port has previously been initialized to assuming there
        is a modem attached and it is online (carrier dectect high).

        Also, could someone provide me with the addresses and interrupts
        assigned to com ports com3 through com8?  Sources in .asm or .c
        or just a description would be helpful.  Thanks in advance.
