Accept "true", "enable", "on", "yes", "1" as true values, their
counterparts as false ones. Check integer values for errors and range.
Warn about ignored (e.g. misspelled) options.
Check getenv() return value for NULL.
Rename "tiorc" to "config", as it's a static INI file, not an executable
"run commands".
Fix regression so that it is possible to send the prefix key code to the
remote tio session without local tio session reacting to same key code
(quitting etc.).
Add key command 'ctrl-t f' which will toggle log on/off.
If no log filename has been specified via the 'log-filename' option then
tio will automatically generate a new log filename every time the log
feature is toggled on. Meaning, when toggled multiple times, multiple
log files will be generated.
However, if a log filename has been specified, tio will only write and
append to that same file.
Print the 2 character hex code that you input in hex mode but then
delete it before sending. This way it is easier to keep track of what
you are inputting. It basically mimics the ctrl-shift-u input mechanism
that is used to input unicode.
The feature is detailed via the following option:
--alert none|bell|blink
Set alert action on connect/disconnect.
It will sound the bell once or blink once on successful connect.
Likewise it will sound the bell twice or blink twice on disconnect.
Default value is "none" for no alert.
We generally try to list serial devices by ID but in the MSYS2/Cygwin
environment serial devices are not available by ID and so we simply list
the basic serial device paths instead.
Many modern RS-485 serial devices such as the ones from FTDI already
operate in RS-485 mode by default and will work with tio out of the box.
However, there are some RS-232/485 devices which need to be switched
from e.g. RS-232 to RS-485 mode to operate accordingly on the physical
level.
This commit implements the switching mechanism and interface required to
enable RS-485 mode. It only works on Linux and with serial devices which
use device drivers that support the Linux RS-485 control interface.
The RS-485 feature is detailed via the following options:
--rs-485 Enable RS-485 mode
--rs-485-config <config> Set RS-485 configuration
Set the RS-485 configuration using the following key or key value pair
format in the configuration field:
RTS_ON_SEND=value Set logical level (0 or 1) for RTS pin when sending
RTS_AFTER_SEND=value Set logical level (0 or 1) for RTS pin after sending
RTS_DELAY_BEFORE_SEND=value Set RTS delay (ms) before sending
RTS_DELAY_AFTER_SEND=value Set RTS delay (ms) after sending
RX_DURING_TX Receive data even while sending data
If defining more than one key or key value pair, they must be comma
separated.
Example use:
$ tio /dev/ttyUSB0 --rs-485 --rs-r485-config=RTS_DELAY_AFTER_SEND=50,RX_DURING_TX
If the remote end of a socket is closed between when an input character
is received from the serial port and when it is written to the socket,
tio will receive a SIGPIPE signal when writing the character to the
socket, which will terminate the program. To prevent this, ignore the
signal, which will cause write(2) to return -EPIPE, causing tio to close
the socket.
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
This reverts commit c3116b2b56.
On second thought, this is less appropriate when using the configuration
file. We may want to define the log filename in config file but not
necessarily enable log feature.
