This is not completely right: The serial2 ("s2") protocol is default in
OpenCBM if and only if only one device is recognized. If cbmcopy and/or
d64copy recognize more than one device, they fall back to serial1 ("s1")
automatically.

Again, this is only the default. If the user specifies a protocol on the
command-line, no autodetection is done, and the command will use the
specified protocol. 

Regards,
Spiro.
