[PATCH]: ser-tcp.c: Use `localhost' as default hostname


Hi,

I don't like to type

  target remote localhost:1234

all the time. It"s possible to abbreviate it to

  ta r localhost:1234

but I don't see a need to type `localhost'. I would like to have
`localhost' as default if no hostname is given like in:

  ta r :1234

The following tiny patch handles that.

Corinna
