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.
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
Fix the display of relative timestamps. The hack of subtracting 3600
only works if you happen to be in a time zone that is one hour away from
UTC. When subtracting two time values, the result is an absolute
quantity (interval). These should be displayed as-is; without local time
zone nor daylight saving correction. Hence gmtime() instead of
localtime().
When enabled this option will timestamp new lines with the time elapsed
since the line before.
This is a very useful feature to identify which events takes the most
time.
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.
But make the timestamp format RFC3339 compliant instead. The RFC states:
NOTE: ISO 8601 defines date and time separated by "T".
Applications using this syntax may choose, for the sake of
readability, to specify a full-date and full-time separated by
(say) a space character.
This way we keep the information specified by ISO 8601 but make it more
human readable which is better for the console output.
We do not need the date part of the timestamp. It simply takes up too
much precious line space. In case of logging to file, one can easily
conclude the date from the file date information.
