You can set baud rates, etc., by echoing the right goo into
the ctl file. For example:
echo -n b19200 > /dev/eai0ctl
sets eia0 to 19200 baud. Not all the controls are sticky in
the Unix sense so you should do this while you have the /dev/eia0
open.

When I do this, it just hangs. I'm using a hardware setup (null modem
cable to another machine) which works in DOS.
In another window, 'cat /dev/eia0ctl' returns:
cts dsr ring dcd dtr rts
Is there anything else I need to send to the control port?
