Button layout files are normally found in the folder into which Telegesis Terminal was installed. They
are xml files so they can be edited by a text editor or by a tool such as the Microsoft XML Notepad,
as well as from within Telegesis Terminal itself. Buttons usually have a single AT command attached
to them, but v4 of Telegesis Terminal allows a button to have multiple commands, each terminated
by <cr>. When the button is pressed a 100ms delay is inserted after each command.
Connection can be made to a COM port or to an IP address and port number; the latter opens a TCP
connection.
