I do not like to add configuration switches for stuff that does not need to be configurable. It is not like we are adding full hardware handshake ... Currently, RTS is always inactive, so it must be ignored by anyone talking to such a target board. If we make RTS always active, this should cause no harm, but make it possible to talk to the board using a terminal program that has RTS/CTS handshaking activated. cu Michael
