Martin Lund a8103b8983 Added simple tx/rx statistics command (ctrl-t s)
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.

Set baud rate [bps] (default: 115200).
.TP
.BR \-d ", " "\-\-databits 5" | 6 | 7 | 8
Set data bits (default: 8).
.TP
.BR \-f ", " "\-\-flow hard" | soft | none
Set flow control (default: none).
.TP
.BR \-s ", " "\-\-stopbits 1" | 2
Set stop bits (default: 1).

In session, the following key sequences are intercepted as tio commands:
.IP "\fBctrl-t q"
Quit
.IP "\fBctrl-t s"
Show session statistics (total number of bytes transmitted/received)
.IP "\fBctrl-t t"
Send ctrl-t key code
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.TP
The most common use is without options. For example:
tio /dev/ttyUSB0
.TP
Which corresponds to:
tio \-b 115200 \-d 8 \-f none \-s 1 \-p none /dev/ttyUSB0
.TP
It is recommended to connect serial tty devices by id. For example:
tio /dev/serial/by\-id/usb\-FTDI_TTL232R-3V3_FTGQVXBL\-if00\-port0
.PP
Using serial devices by id ensures that tio automatically reconnects to the
correct serial device if the device is disconnected and then reconnected.
