[arm-allstar] Virtual com port Raspberry Pi Hamvoip

[Dave Petrie]

Hi David, so I am back to trying to use socat, I have my Windows 7
professional desktop computer authenticated with Microsoft.
I downloaded socat-1.7.3.0-windows-master and when i go to the unzipped
folder and click on socat the application, i get a pop up window for half a
second and nothing else.
How did you get it working on your windows 7?
Dave
