Hi All,

I am releasing this out to the amateur community.

https://github.com/n9seo/catmux

What you will find here is an early version of catmux.

I tried to recreate the functionality of multiplexing your serial
connection to your radios so you can run apps like wsjtx, fldigi,
flrig, hamlib, even windows soundmodems with only RTS or DTR PTT in
linux under wine.  So it will translate RTS/DTR to CAT if you need.

It only has tested support for the FT-991A at the moment but I will add
a few other radios later on.  

It will give you the ability to connect catmux to  your radio then
setup virtual serial ports for each thing that wants to have direct CAT
command or CI-V (later on down the road).

Think of this as being very similar to LP-Bridge on windows.

It was born out of frustration of having to unhook rigctld to use flrig
or some other app in linux and those specific use cases like if you
want to run WINRPR in linux from WINE how do you handle PTT?  

It does use tty0tty underneath for those apps like WinRPR that need a
little extra serial signalling to work.
