    Default

    you can use it two at the time, but you need to use a COM port sniffer instead to monitor your Serial comm.

    In VB this could be probably done, but it may cause some bugs with the bootloader.

    The problem is easy to bypass so far, you must ask you application to leave the COM port before the bootloading process.

    Darrel... another API case

    list comming bigger and bigger daily

    Do we have to build our own IDE or what?

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
