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.
