Quote:
Serialterm is a command line tool that was developed for debugging microcontroller hardware that is connected to the PC via serial line. The program reads characters from the keyboard and sends them them to the selected com-port (a option for local echo is given). At the same time it reads characters from the serial port and displays them on the screen in ASCII, decimal or hexadecimal style. The separator between displayed characters can be set to space, tab, newline, or 'nothing'. The output can be saved to a log-file.

[Download]
[Sourcecode in C/C++]

serialterm port [speed] [DisplayMode] [Separator] [Echo][logfilename]
port ::= com1 | com2 | com3 | com4 | com5 | com6
speed::= 300 | 4800 | 9600 | 19200 | 38400 | 57600 | 115200 | 230400
DisplayMode::= ascii | hex | decimal
Separator::= empty | space | newline | tab
Echo::= no | yes
logfilename::= <anyname> (if not provided no log is written)

Usage examples:
serialterm com1 115200 hex space no logfile.txt
open the terminal on port com1 with 115200 bit/s, print hex code of
incoming characters, seperate them by space, no local echo, save
output to the file 'logfile.txt'

serialterm com2 19200 decimal tab yes
open the terminal on port com2 with 19200 bit/s, print decimal code
of incoming characters, seperate them by tabs, do local echo, no logfile

Smile It seems that we might have similar interests...

I too came across this tool here a month or two ago. This post describes what I am struggling with as it relates to the vast majority of pseudo-stand-alone/Script-Friendly Serial Port interfaces.

I need the ability to send data out the port, or listen to data coming in, all while using the other signals for controlling the state of the target. Most of these tools lock the dev out of being able to programatically control the RTS/DTR lines, but rather uses them in their traditional capacity.

Oh well, my hunt continues. The linked post above is on a forum for an app that holds a bit of promise - hopefully it will prove to be just what I have been searching for...
