tio - A simple serial device I/O tool for linux
lundmar:
Hi guys,
If you are using Linux and you are looking for a nice clean cut serial device tool to connect to your embedded target then you should give tio a try: http://tio.github.io
"tio" is a simple serial device I/O tool which features a straightforward command-line and configuration file interface to easily connect to TTY devices for basic input/output.
Consider it a simpler alternative to minicom/picocom/screen etc. with less focus on classic terminal/modem features and more focus on the needs of embedded developers and hackers.

The older I get the more loath I am to start adding packages that aren't in the official repos. Things get very ugly very fast sometimes.

FYI - tio is included in the official Debian repos so if you are using Ubuntu/Debian you are in luck as you don't need to break your old habits.

I was posting a little more for 'bumps sake' to be honest. ;)

try to get it in https://brew.sh/ as well.. Would be great on OSX as well, instead of the bloated old minicom.. :)
