LITES                                      Jeff Prosise
Display RS232 status                        Version 1.1
-------------------------------------------------------

Purpose
-------
Replaces an RS232 breakout box by displaying the
status of the DTR, DSR, RTS, CTS, DCD, and RI pins;
also indicates the data rate, parity, number of
data bits, and number of stop bits of the serial
port being monitored.

Format
------

    LITES [comport] [U]

Remarks
-------
LITES is a memory-resident utility and may be loaded
either at the DOS prompt or as part of an
AUTOEXEC.BAT file. If no communications port is
specified, the default comport monitored is COM1.
After loading, alternately pressing Alt-L (the
default hotkey) pops up and cancels the on-screen
display, which is located (by default) in the upper
right corner of the screen. LITES can be deinstalled
by entering it with the optional u (or U) parameter,
which  simplifies changing the comport to be
monitored. (Do not precede the U with a slash.)
