If I open two terminal windows using two different COM ports, both windows show the same serial data. To make this clearer, if COM3 is receiving a stream constantly sending "Hello COM3" and another window is opened on COM4 receiving a different stream sending "Hello COM4" both windows show...
Hello COM3
Hello COM4
I would expect each COM port to be displayed in its own separate window. Having said that, for some applications (e.g. monitoring full duplex comms) this is actually very handy!
