    Parse/apply [COM:x] section upon prompted key press of 'x'Another hack for Nelgin: this'll allow (in theory) the serial device to switch parity modes (e.g. 8N1 or 7E1) depending on what the user selects (key pressed).I did not add byte/stop bit size configurations. We may need that.

    Log Message:
    Don't call com_setup() unless an alternate [COM:x] section is loadedApparently com_setup() (which just calls tcsetattr()) will cause an attached modem (with a caller) to disconnect the caller. So you can't do this with a live modem. Leave the hack in for Nelgin's null modem cable setup, but you can't (apparently) support both 8N1 and 7E1 "callers" with a real modem (not surprisingly, for multiple reasons).

    Implement write-retry in modem_send()

    In attempt to address the "Error 11" (EAGAIN) error theat Nelgin sees when configuring some longer modem init strings on Linux.

    This is just a single retry (after a yield) after any modem command char
    send failure (for any reason), including the terminating carriage-return.

    See issue #662 to details.

    This is just a single retry (after a yield) after any modem command char send failure (for any reason), including the terminating carriage-return.

    im guessing that it's the &W he has at the end of the init string. some modems (including mine for some reason) won't send an OK when they get that.

    as you can see in a previous message, mine is a lot longer than his but works fine. I think his EAGAIN could be a resource conflict in some form of buffer maybe. ie sending data too fast (not that it should matter).

    not knowing his setup i couldnt answer that, but i would put money on it being on a cheap usb/serial adapter :D

    i think it's because some people throw settings that cant be stored with that method in the ram. i wouldn't even use a long init string. keep it simple.
