+Arguments are specified as keyword/argument pairs.  Attributes that
+are not given are re-initialized from the process's current
+configuration (available via the function `process-contact') or set to
+reasonable default values.  The following arguments are defined:
+
+:process PROCESS
+:name NAME
+:buffer BUFFER
+:port PORT
+-- Any of these arguments can be given to identify the process that is
+to be configured.  If none of these arguments is given, the current
+buffer's process is used.
+
+:speed SPEED -- SPEED is the speed of the serial port in bits per
+second, also called baud rate.  Any value can be given for SPEED, but
+most serial ports work only at a few defined values between 1200 and
+115200, with 9600 being the most common value.  If SPEED is nil, the
+serial port is not configured any further, i.e., all other arguments
+are ignored.  This may be useful for special serial ports such as
+Bluetooth-to-serial converters which can only be configured through AT
+commands.  A value of nil for SPEED can be used only when passed
+through `make-serial-process' or `serial-term'.
+
+:bytesize BYTESIZE -- BYTESIZE is the number of bits per byte, which
+can be 7 or 8.  If BYTESIZE is not given or nil, a value of 8 is used.
+
+:parity PARITY -- PARITY can be nil (don't use parity), the symbol
+`odd' (use odd parity), or the symbol `even' (use even parity).  If
+PARITY is not given, no parity is used.
+
+:stopbits STOPBITS -- STOPBITS is the number of stopbits used to
+terminate a byte transmission.  STOPBITS can be 1 or 2.  If STOPBITS
+is not given or nil, 1 stopbit is used.
+
+:flowcontrol FLOWCONTROL -- FLOWCONTROL determines the type of
+flowcontrol to be used, which is either nil (don't use flowcontrol),
+the symbol `hw' (use RTS/CTS hardware flowcontrol), or the symbol `sw'
+\(use XON/XOFF software flowcontrol).  If FLOWCONTROL is not given, no
+flowcontrol is used.

+
+In Emacs, serial port connections are represented by process objects,
+so input and output work as for subprocesses, and `delete-process'
+closes a serial port connection.  However, a serial process has no
+process id, it cannot be signaled, and the status codes are different
+from normal processes.
+
+`make-serial-process' creates a process and a buffer, on which you
+probably want to use `process-send-string'.  Try \\[serial-term] for
+an interactive terminal.  See below for examples.
+
+Arguments are specified as keyword/argument pairs.  The following
+arguments are defined:
+
+:port PORT -- (mandatory) PORT is the path or name of the serial port.
+For example, this could be "/dev/ttyS0" on Unix.  On Windows, this
+could be "COM1", or "\\\\.\\COM10" for ports higher than COM9 (double
+the backslashes in strings).
+
+:speed SPEED -- (mandatory) is handled by `serial-process-configure',
+which is called by `make-serial-process'.
+
+:name NAME -- NAME is the name of the process.  If NAME is not given,
+the value of PORT is used.
+
+:buffer BUFFER -- BUFFER is the buffer (or buffer-name) to associate
+with the process.  Process output goes at the end of that buffer,
+unless you specify an output stream or filter function to handle the
+output.  If BUFFER is not given, the value of NAME is used.
+
+:coding CODING -- If CODING is a symbol, it specifies the coding
+system used for both reading and writing for this process.  If CODING
+is a cons (DECODING . ENCODING), DECODING is used for reading, and
+ENCODING is used for writing.
+
+:noquery BOOL -- When exiting Emacs, query the user if BOOL is nil and
+the process is running.  If BOOL is not given, query before exiting.
+
+:stop BOOL -- Start process in the `stopped' state if BOOL is non-nil.
+In the stopped state, a serial process does not accept incoming data,
+but you can send outgoing data.  The stopped state is cleared by
+`continue-process' and set by `stop-process'.
+
+:filter FILTER -- Install FILTER as the process filter.
+
+:sentinel SENTINEL -- Install SENTINEL as the process sentinel.
+
+:plist PLIST -- Install PLIST as the initial plist of the process.
+
+:speed
+:bytesize
+:parity
+:stopbits
+:flowcontrol
+-- These arguments are handled by `serial-process-configure', which is
+called by `make-serial-process'.
+
+The original argument list, possibly modified by later configuration,
+is available via the function `process-contact'.

+Examples:
+
