It does now ;-)

Apologies for what may have been a stupid question - it's not that I didn't look at the documentation, more that - as I've found with attempting to extend the C++ standard iostream library - it doesn't seem that clear how to achieve a certain task and why things have to be done a certain way.

Thanks for the help again :-)

A wild guess: Does serial_device implement the "Flushable" concept?
