Terminal to experiment with some devices using some ports, like serial port.

[[_TOC_]]

# Introduction

For some cases, we have to interact with a device.

Some uses [RS-232 serial ports](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RS-232),

other [USBTMC](https://www.usb.org/document-library/test-measurement-class-specification),

and many more.

Before we can write our application,

it's handy to use a terminal to get familiar with the device command interface.

There are a lot of terminal application that can communicate via RS232 serial port.

Maybe not so much for USB-TMC.

Also, some old devices are very slow,

and don't work if we send bytes at the normal predefined rate

(they must be sent one by one with some ms interval).

# Status

Currently, I only work on RS-232 serial port.
