would it be to ugly to have the script implement "INCLUDE" and

do you mean, any of the error messages starting with "??" ?

hmmm. doable i guess. 

i was wondering, would there be any value in sending a few more
characters than have been echoed back? is there any kind of buffer? i
was thinking the script at the moment might be too cautious.

i noticed it's also possible to add the script as an upload protocol in
minicom. you need to set the -f option so that it doesn't check to see
who else has the tty open.
