Add simple expect functionality.
The expect(string) function will wait for input from the tty device and
only return when there is a string match. Regular expressions are
supported.
Example:
script = expect('password:'); send('my_password\n')
Replaces -x, --hexadecimal option with --intput-mode and --output-mode
so it is possible to select hex or normal mode for both input and output
independently.
To obtain same behaviour as -x, --hexadecimal use the following
configuration:
input-mode = hex
output-mode = hex
On some platforms calling high()/low() to switch line states result in
costly system calls whick makes it impossible to swith two or more tty
lines simultaneously.
To help solve this timing issue we introduce a tty line state
configuration API which can be used instead of using
high()/low().
Using config_low(line) and config_high(line) one can set up a new line
state configuration for multiple lines and then use config_apply() to
finally apply the configuration. This will result in only one system
call to instruct the serial port drive to switch all the configured line
states which should help ensure that the lines are switched
simultaneously.
Example:
script = config_high(DTR); config_low(RTS); config_apply()
Add ONULBRK mapping to map nul (zero) to send break signal on output.
This is useful if one needs to e.g. send the break signal to the tty
device when connected via socket.
Add support for running Lua scripts that can manipulate the tty control
lines. Script is activated automatically on connect or manually via in
session key command.
The Lua scripting feature opens up for many posibilities in the future
such as adding expect like functionality to easily and programatically
interact with the connected device.

Add CodeQL Workflow for Code Security Analysis
This pull request introduces a CodeQL workflow to enhance the security analysis of our repository. CodeQL is a powerful static analysis tool that helps identify and mitigate security vulnerabilities in our codebase. By integrating this workflow into our GitHub Actions, we can proactively identify and address potential issues before they become security threats.
We added a new CodeQL workflow file (.github/workflows/codeql.yml) that
- Runs on every push and pull request to the main branch.
- Excludes queries with a high false positive rate or low-severity findings.
- Does not display results for third-party code, focusing only on our own codebase.
Testing:
To validate the functionality of this workflow, we have run several test scans on the codebase and reviewed the results. The workflow successfully compiles the project, identifies issues, and provides actionable insights while reducing noise by excluding certain queries and third-party code.
Deployment:
Once this pull request is merged, the CodeQL workflow will be active and automatically run on every push and pull request to the main branch. To view the results of these code scans, please follow these steps:
1. Under the repository name, click on the Security tab.
2. In the left sidebar, click Code scanning alerts.
Additional Information:
- You can further customize the workflow to adapt to your specific needs by modifying the workflow file.
- For more information on CodeQL and how to interpret its results, refer to the GitHub documentation and the CodeQL documentation.

When entering a file name, eg. 'test' it whould output the following
with 2 stale letters of the former input string:
[14:41:58.987] Send file with XMODEM
[14:42:08.015] Sending file 'test'st
[14:42:08.015] Press any key to abort transfer
To avoid this we simply overwrite the 2 stale letters with whitespaces.
