I wanted merely save some time and have more comfort during programming
PICs.
Writing kernel driver for (emulated) serial port is would take much more
time than I can ever save by it.
I will probably try it once I have some spare time anyway )
Until then I stick with programming over ssh ;p
Sincerely
