Speed port - Ver 1.0

Speed port is a VERY simple utility that allows you to set the com port baud
rate.
I created this utility to reset the com port baud rate when dropping out of
Anni BBS to execute a door program. I use a FOSSIL driver loaded in
Config.sys and don't care to have to reload the fossil in a dos prompt.
Now with the advent of Win Fossil, there is no dos program to set the com
port speed to 38400, 57600 or 115200.

Speed port does nothing other than reprogram the baud rate generator.
it does not change any of the DTR or RTS or other lines.

The syntax of the program is:

SPEED <PORT> <SPEED>

where:

<PORT> = 1,2,3 or 4 which is the Com port 1-4 that you which to set.
<SPEED> = 1,2,3 or 4
        1 = 115200 Baud
        2 = 57600 Baud
        3 = 38400 Baud
        4 = 19200 Baud


E.G.:

SPEED 1 3

which sets COM1 to 38400 Buad

I have included the Source code for the program. It is written with
Quick Basic 4.5 and compiled as a stand alone EXE. <Hey, I told you it
was VERY simple>. You can do what you like with it, Read it, look at it
laugh at, terrify your girl friend...whatever.

Well, thats about it I guess. good luck and hope it works for you.
