I need a program that can talk to a serial port on the local computer, the way Hyperterm does for Microsoft Windows.
I would like this program to present its user interface in an xterm. If that is not possible, perhaps a program that is itself an X11 client would do.
I was able to compile "minicom" under cygwin. However, when minicom launches, it tries to access /dev/ttyS1, which is not provided by cygwin.
Would someone suggest a program that is suitable, or a program that might be portable to cygwin. I am willing to do a bit of work on this.
Thanks for any suggestions!
mincom will work -- you need to configure it to use the proper ttySx,, i.e. if you are using com1, configure minicom to use /dev/ttyS0
