Remove instructions for MacPorts because the port has no maintainer and
the port build definition is broken (missing dependency on libinih etc.).
It is recommended to use brew instead.
Add a simple line response feature to make it possible to send e.g. a
command string to your serial device and easily receive and parse a line
response.
This is a convenience feature for simple request/response interaction
based on lines. For more advanced interaction the socket feature should
be used instead.
The line response feature is detailed via the following options:
-r, --response-wait
Wait for line response then quit. A line is considered any string ending
with either CR or NL character. If no line is received tio will quit
after response timeout.
Any tio text is automatically muted when piping a string to tio while in
response mode to make it easy to parse the response.
--response-timeout <ms>
Set timeout [ms] of line response (default: 100).
Example:
Sending a string (SCPI command) to a test instrument (Korad PSU) and
print line response:
$ echo "*IDN?" | tio /dev/ttyACM0 --response-wait
KORAD KD3305P V4.2 SN:32477045
Replace existing toggle and pulse key commands with the following
generalized key commands which allows to toggle or pulse all serial port
lines:
ctrl-t g Toggle serial port line
ctrl-t p Pulse serial port line
When used, user will be asked which serial line to toggle or pulse.
Also introduce --line-pulse-duration option for setting specific pulse
duration in milliseconds for each serial line using a key value pair
format. Each key represents a serial line. The following keys are
available: DTR, RTS, CTS, DSR, DCD, RI.
Example:
$ tio /dev/ttyUSB0 --line-pulse-duration DTR=200,RTS=300,RI=50
Likewise, the pulse duration can also be set via configuration file
using the line-pulse-duration variable:
line-pulse-duration = DTR=200,RTS=300,RI=50
Introduce "bold" color option which only apply bold color formatting to
existing system color.
Also make "bold" the default color option.
Fixes all white issue with black on white tio text.
Make it possible to remap the prefix key (default: ctrl-t) by setting
the prefix-ctrl-key variable in the configuration file.
Allowed values are in the range a..z.
Example, to set the prefix key to ctrl-a simply do:
prefix-ctrl-key = a
Added command line options:
-O, --eol-delay to have a separate delay for end of line
-U, --upper to enable translation of lower case alpha to upper case
Added ability to set mark parity.
Added ctrl-t U key sequence to allow enable/disable lower case alpha to
upper case during a session.
Updated Man page with command line options, ctrl-t sequences and
configuration file options.
Updated README.md, with above information.
