1 # Simple serial terminal
3 This is a minimalist terminal program like *minicom* or *cu*. The only
4 thing it does is creating a bidirectional connection between
5 stdin/stdout and a terminal device (e.g. serial line). It can also set
6 serial line baudrate, manipulate DTR/RTS modem lines, send break and
7 throttle transmission speed.
9 The `-d` and `-r` option create short pulse on DTR/RTS. Linux always
10 raises these lines when the device is opened and those options lower
11 the lines immediately after opening.
