 -i IN_DEV
-       Set the device to use for Port1, if you're using serial ports.
-       Default of /dev/ttyS0
-
--l PORT
-       Set the port to listen on, if you want Port1 to be a TCP socket.
+       Set the device to use for Port1. Default of /dev/ttyS0. If you want
+       to listen on a TCP port then use the format :port. If there's a / in
+       the string then it will always be treated as a device rather than a
+       port to listen on.
 
 -o OUT_DEV
-       Set the device to use for Port2, if you're using serial ports.
-       Default of /dev/ttyS1
-
--c HOST:PORT
-       Specify the host and port to connect to if Port2 is to be a TCP
-       socket.

 -b BAUD
        Specify baud rate for serial connections. Defaults to 19200.

        Make sersniff not copy data between the two ports - useful if a
        Y cable is being used for serial port sniffing for example.
 
+-n
+       Don't do any port configuration.

+-w USECS
+       How many microsecs to wait before reporting a delay.

+-x

+-f
