serial port characteristics

How do I set baud rate, bits-per-byte, stop bit, flow control for a serial
port in Linux?

The stty utility should do what you describe. man stty.

setserial does not set any of the above parameters.

Or whatever program you are accessing the serial port with (like minicom)
should have some way to set that. For scripting, I have used the Perl
Device::SerialPort module (a Linux/Unix variant of Win32::SerialPort) to
check modem AT command responses.

See man setserial.

Even three wrongs don't make a right.

"Because", unlike stty and other line entrainments, it does NOT allow
you to vary the baud rate. And the other stuff is not to do with the
port, but rather the protocol going over the port.

I thunk he wants to read the Serial-Programming HOWTO. Either that
or man
