Hi,
this is complicate for me to explain...let' try it nvertheless ;)
I am experimenting with FORTH (punyforth) on an ESP8266.
FORTH has a REPL, which -- especially in the beginning -- is
very helpful to try things out.
With cutecom I can connect to the ESP8266 and get a response.
Unfortunately - in this particular case - cutecom separates the
input line from what the ESP8266 i sending back.
With Arduino devices I had no problem to do the same thing with
gnu-screen like this
screen /dev/ttyUSB1 115200
...with the ESP8266 (using the same baudrate as with cutecom
before) the cursor get glued in the upper left corner.
Hitting a key, CTRL-D. CTRL-C, <RETURN> and other obvious
candidates does not help. The only waty out is killall.
Now I am in search of a "real terminal"-like thing, which
allows me to interactively connect to the ESP8266 while
maintaining the chronological sequence of my inputs and
the returns of the ESP8266.
I tried minicom, but I always dislike the way that beast
is configured,
Is there anything reliable available...may be even without a gui?
Thanks fpr any help in advance!
Cheers
Meino
