+.Sh NAME
+.Nm nmdm
+.Nd nullmodem terminal driver
+.Sh SYNOPSIS
+.Cd "device nmdm"
+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides two
+.Xr tty 4
+devices connected
+by a virtual
+.Dq "null modem"
+cable.
+.Pp
+If either of the two tty devices have the
+.Dv CDSR_OFLOW
+bit
+.Pq Dq Li "stty dsrflow"
+set in their line discipline, the
+.Nm
+device will emulate the speed configured in the
+.Xr termios 4
+settings.
+The speed emulation works independently in the two directions,
+controlled by the slower end's termios settings
+.Va ( c_ispeed , c_ospeed ,
+.Dv CS5 ... CS8 , CSTOPB
+and
+.Dv PARENB ) .
+.Sh FILES
+.Bl -tag -width ".Pa /dev/nmdm Ns Ar N Ns Op Pa AB" -compact
+.It Pa /dev/nmdm Ns Ar N Ns Op Pa AB
+nullmodem device nodes.
+Where the
+.Pa A
+node has a matching
+.Pa B
+node.
+.El
+.Pp
+The
+.Nm
+driver implements
+.Dq "on-demand device creation"
+so simply accessing a given instance in
+.Pa /dev
+will create it.
+.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
+None.

+.Sh HISTORY
+The
+.Nm
+driver first appeared in
