Serial Comms in 4.6.4

[Dar Scott]

Hi, Camm!

I don't remember any changes.

Maybe this can be tracked down.  What OS?  How does it fail?

However, you might want to rule out other things.  I find the most common reason that a serial communications program suddenly fails is a cable issue.  Usually the handshake lines don't make it trough or something else is wrong in the wiring.  Sometimes the USB-to-serial adaptor is an issue.
