[ale] Brain fart about com ports

All,

I need to see if a com port is working (/dev/tty0 I assume) on a
CentOS machine.  I have a joystick hooked up just to generate some
dummy data to test with.

It has been several years since I used a com port on Linux and I've
forgotten how to create a simple test connection.  :(

Can someone give me the command.  I don't need anything fancy, once I
see data coming across, I'm going to move on to diagnosing the actual
application.  (3rd party security camera app).

Thanks
Greg
