Public bug reported:

If I run minicom -o -p /dev/pts/3, the status bar still shows the original port name like /dev/ttyS0.
>From the code (minicom.c:1372, I found dial_tty will be replaced by P_PORT if I don't use -p argument.
So question is why not show dial_tty on status bar. It is the real node minicom connects.

main.c #564
bufi += snprintf(buf + bufi, COLS - bufi, "%s", shortened_devpath(b, sizeof(b), P_PORT));
