subject: SLIP & Hot Com Ports

I run a BBS and am starting to program now under EMX/GCC. 

 I need to come up with a way to hand off a hot com port with a user logged
on (to the BBS) to the SLIP driver. I have tested with a caller on one SLIP
coming in and the other SLIP going to my provider and it worked really
well. 

 Now I need a program to either plug in a new SLIP session to the SLIP
driver, or be able to put the SLIP on hold while the caller uses the BBS.
Is there any way to do something like this? Any code examples on how to
pass comports between programs?
