I have looked at tcpser, even built it, and been in touch with the author when
I failed to get it working (as I described). It would seem the author is under
the impression that it is not a "Modem + COM port emulator", but more along the
lines of a "Remote Modem Emulator", in other words, something that allows
us/me/you to talk to a modem by distance (or "virtual port", which may or may
not be local/remote).
