Not really because we can have several USB boards connected at the
same time, without knowing, a priori, their number (ttyUSBx). We have
an automatic detection mechanism : we write on the first 10 COM ports
a string and read an answer when one of our board is present. Works
fine under Windows, but under Linux or MacOS... I could link *all* the
ttyUSB to the corresponding ttyS, but... well... it's a bit dirty :-)
and could bring some conflicts if traditional serial devices are
plugged and already use the ttySx.
