This new driver is the brother of tipar. It can handle a serial link
cable
designed to connect a Texas Instruments graphing calculators to a
computer/workstation.
This driver directly accesses some UART registers in a way similar to
serial.c.
A better method should be to do some ioctl for toggling UART lines
rather than by-passing the ttySx driver.
Is there anyone who have some another ideas ?
Romain.
