=================================================================================

Included Components:

SimpleSerial.vep:  
Demonstration project for SimpleSerial.java

SimpleSerial.java:  
SimpleSerial implementation. 

JavaTerm.java:  
Example file which uses SimpleSerial.java for a simple terminal emulation program

SimpleSerial.dll:  
Native code for communicating with serial port.  Make sure this file is in the root 
directory of any project, or in your Windows PATH environment.  If in doubt, copy it 
into your Windows/System32 directory.

SimpleSerial.lib:  
Used to build SimpleSerialEXE.exe

SimpleSerialEXE.exe:  
This is a Win32 binary for of a simple terminal program for communicating with PIC chips.  
The settings are fixed to be compatible with PIC communication -- i.e. 9600 baud, and so on.  
All the user needs to do is set the serial port.  SimpleSerialEXE.exe searches for the 
first available serial port.

SimpleSerialEXE.vep:  
Project for building SimpleSerialEXE.  It's similar to SimpleSerial.vep, except it's configured 
to create a Windows binary, and it includes the file SimpleSerial.lib.  If you rebild the DLL
follow instructions in the native folder on how to rebuild the lib.
