(I might be dreaming, I realize)
I'd use DOS, but my 2nd serial port is PCMCIA.
Alternately, if such a thing exists for Windows XP running on a modern
PC with USB serial ports, I'm open to that also.
I need to do some field data collection and I figured someone here might
know of a simple program.
This isn't specifically DOS oriented, but as long as you don't want to
catch serial errors, you can quite easily sniff one bidirectional
serial line with two serial ports, using both RxD lines for one data
direction each.
You won't get the state of the handshake lines etc, though. I guess
this'll be only really available through the use of commercial
hardware-based sniffers.
