Hi!

For first time users of asio it is not easy to get things started.
I found a demo application (minicom_client) on the web, but it
uses a raw io_service.

In the reference docs I found serial_port_service.

What is the difference?
Can I use serial_port_service as a drop in replacement where
an io_service normally is used?

Is there any small example how to use all this?

best rgards, 

Markus
