• Fix a 100% cpu and possible hang bug when ports were disconnected on windows.

Beta4 has such great feedback we decided to make Beta 5 a release candidate.

It lands today with the following additional changes.

Version 2.0.7-beta5

• Fix binary paths to confirm with modern standards
• Confirm nw.js and electron compatibility
• Make the outpout of .list consistent between platforms and docs
• Define ambiguous flow control flags and document them
• Add support for bluetooth devices in .list /dev/rfcommXX

And if there aren't any regressions with this build we'll go to production! Please give it a whirl and see if your specific flags, oddly named ports, and weird setting are still working.

npm install [email protected]

Thanks!

We had some improvements to the api around flow controls and errors. To keep with semver I bumped the major version even though only the minor was bumped in the betas. I have now released [email protected]. Thanks to everyone involved!
