So... is there any app/script out there that can save me the hassle of

I really don' t want to know what meaningless name F16+ assigns to the

FWIW
# setserial -g /dev/ttyS0
/dev/ttyS0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
FC
Unfortunately that describes the hardware, but not which port has the modem
connected (assuming a plug-in serial connection). I assume ttyS0 is COM1, always
was in the past.
