The need for terminal emulation apps is reappearing, in order to access some consumer IT devices. Suitable apps include:

  • Screen
    • appears to have better compatibility with modern devices than the older Minicom app
    • typical invocation is:

screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200

  • Minicom
    • initial invocation is:

minicom

  • from which settings can be configured and saved to a file <mydevice>, for later invocation as:

minicom mydevice
