Also changes default timestamp format from ISO8601 to classic 24-hour
format as this is assumed to be the format that most users would prefer.
And reintroduces strict but optional ISO8601 format.
This feature allows to easily add more timestamp formats in the future.
Allow user to select which ANSI color code to use to colorize the tio
text. To successfully set the color the color code must be in the range
0..255.
If color code is negative tio will print all available ANSI colors.
The default color is changed to bold white to make tio defaults usable
for most users, including color blind users.
The following new mapping flags are added:
INLCRNL: Map NL to CR-NL on input.
ODELBS: Map DEL to BS on output.
Flags requested and tested by Jan Ciger (janoc).
Add a --map option which allows to map special characters, in particular CR and
NL characters which are used in various combinations on varios platforms.
A new key command 'ctrl-t h' is introduced which toggles between
hexidecial mode and normal mode. When in hexidecimal mode data received
will be printed in hexidecimal.
Rearranged the key commands:
ctrl-c (clear screen) is now
ctrl-l which is similar to the well known shell ctrl-l
ctrl-i (show settings information) is now
ctrl-c (show configuration)
Updated man page accordingly.
A new key command "ctrl-t i" is added to allow the user to display the
various session settings information (baudrate, databits, log file, etc.).
This is usefull in case you have a running session but have forgotten
what the settings are.
To display the total number of bytes transmitted/received simply perform the
'ctrl-t s' command sequence.
This feature can be useful when eg. trying to detect non-printable
characters.
Changed so that the "ctrl-t ctrl-t" sequence is now simply "ctrl-t t" to
send the ctrl-t key code. This is inspired by screen which does similar
to send its command key code (ctrl-a a).
This change also allows to easier add new key commands if needed.
Updated man page accordingly.
After renaming to "tio" it makes sense to change the escape key
accordingly. Hence, the new escape key is ^t.
Meaning, in session, its now ctrl-t + q to quit.
Renamed to "tio" because it is shorter and this new name also more
precisely reflects what the program is - a simple TTY terminal I/O
application.
"tio" can be considered short for terminal I/O or TTY I/O or a
combination of the two, whichever you prefer.
Also, wanted to avoid naming conflicts with other projects.
