"Serial line sniffer (slsnif). slsnif is a serial port logging utility." is not
OK. I suggest "Serial line sniffer (slsnif) is a serial port logging utility."

How can I test the applications, short of manually creating /dev/pty? strace
says:
open("/dev/ptyp0", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/dev/ptyp1", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/dev/ptyp2", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/dev/ptyp3", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/dev/ptyp4", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/dev/ptyp5", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
[...]
open("/dev/ptyTe", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
open("/dev/ptyTf", O_RDWR|O_NOCTTY|O_NONBLOCK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
dup(2)                                  = 4
fcntl(4, F_GETFL)                       = 0x8002 (flags O_RDWR|O_LARGEFILE)
fstat(4, {st_mode=S_IFCHR|0600, st_rdev=makedev(136, 5), ...}) = 0
mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0) =
0x2aaaaaaad000
lseek(4, 0, SEEK_CUR)                   = -1 ESPIPE (Illegal seek)
write(4, "Failed to open a pty: No such fi"..., 48Failed to open a pty: No such
file or directory

and the application dies
