+Digi AccelePort Driver
+
+ This driver supports the Digi AccelePort USB 4 device, a 4 port
+ USB serial converter. The driver does NOT yet support the Digi
+ AccelePort USB 2 or 8.
+
+ The driver supports open, close, read, write, termios settings (baud
+ rate, word size, parity, stop bits, hardware/software flow control,
+ CREAD), DTR/RTS, and TIOCMGET/SET/BIS/BIC ioctls. It has not been
+ thoroughly tested, but it seems to be working reasonable well. There
+ is more work to do, including flow control, ioctls, and support for
+ the Digi AccelePort USB 2 and 8.
+
+ Please contact Peter Berger (pberger@brimson.com) or Al Borchers
+ (alborchers@steinerpoint.com) for questions or problems with this
+ driver.
