Does kill look for lock files and release devices?
No. Kill just sends a signal (default SIGTERM). Minicom catches the
signal, cleans up by closing files and restoring the terminal settings and
then exits. Sounds like it restores the serial port settings as well. Try
'kill -9': that cannot be caught (it will leave the terminal in a strange
state, though. Use 'reset' to fix it).
I used kill and kill -9. The latter also has that effect (of dropping the
DTR).
The kill command is really misnamed, it should be called send-signal.
By default it sends a process the signal SIGTERM (terminate).
When you use kill -x where x is a number, it sends signal number x.
Signal 9 is SIGKILL. You may find a list by using
$ kill -l
Glad you got your modem working.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
