Super Serial Card support?

[sh95014]

Does this actually work in Linux? I took a closer look at SerialComms.cpp, and code like CSuperSerialCard::GetSerialPortChoices() seem hardcoded to Windows (because it scans for "COM" ports and returns an oddball 0-delimited string).

But my specific issue is either:

1. How do I get a list of serial port options, if not CSuperSerialCard::GetSerialPortChoices()?
2. Or, I guess a feature request to support serial ports in Linux somehow.

Zero support.

there is a branch where I implemented the SerialCard -> TCP forwarding, but never merged it (it needs a couple of changes to the serial event handling in AW.

I have never really had any interest in it, but could be sorted.

I asked some AI what we could make it look like on linux and the answers are

1. TCP Socket (The Modern BBS Route) (fixed address at conf time)
2. TCP: Virtual Modem Emulation (The "Gold Standard") (dynamically intercept ATDT retrobbs.com:23)
3. Pseudoterminals (/dev/pts)
4. Standard I/O (Pipes and Files)

What does AW do and what did you have in mind?

I actually don’t care at all, just thought I’d leave you a note because I came across it while matching the new Windows slot config UI.

I didn’t look that hard into Windows, but the UI seems to scan for COM ports and hardcodes a TCP option.
