Can anyone tell me why a program that uses Cauxin/Cauxout ceases to work when run from gulam ? It doesn't reconfigure the serial port, but works fine with the default initialisations outside gulam. What does gulam do to the serial port? Thamks in advance Graeme Dixon - Computing Laboratory, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK

Nothing else is done to the serial port. Your program seems to use handle 2 assuming that it points to the AUX-port. Try "prog 2>AUX:" to get stderr redirected to the serial port again.
