[Wine] USB to serial converters

[Charles Morrison]

Anyone have an idea as to how to automatically detect the USB number and 
create a sym link in the dosdevices directory.

The problem is that I have several USB devices not used at the same 
time, and when the USB to serial adapter is connected, a /dev/ttyUSB? is 
assigned. To use this assignment under WINE, I need to automatically 
detect /dev/ttyUSB? and then create a sym link in ~/.wine/dosdevices for 
the Windows program to use it. Of course, when the cable is 
disconnected, the symlink must also be removed.

An alternate way is to reserve the serial port to one device 
(/dev/ttyUSB0 for example) and then create a permanent symlink in the 
dosdevices directory. This means that other devices must not use this 
reservation.

Any ideas are appreciated.
