I had to add "/dev/cua/a" for Solaris. It would be nice if the Solaris
entries were added.
The best solution might be to figure out what system it's running on and put
up a menu for that type of system. For example, SunOS 4.x would get:
/dev/cua0
/dev/cua1
...
Solaris 2.x would get:
/dev/cua/a
/dev/cua/b
...
and so on. Or at least make it so that it's easy to add user-defined entries
to the list.
