Serialclient: a command-line client for serial device

Serialclient is a client to communicate to a serial port. Serialclient works in command line since it is developped with KISS philosophy at mind.

Best option is to use rubygems to install it.

1. First install ruby & rubygems:

• For ubuntu users: # apt-get install ruby rubygems

• For arch users (useless rubygems package for ruby1.9): # pacman -S ruby

2. Install serialclient rubygem package # gem install serialclient

3. It's over !

• Basic usage serialclient -p /dev/ttyUSB0

• See serialclient --help for setting

  • speed
  • data bits
  • stop_bits
  • parity

• Enjoy ! You will get a silly prompt that send commands directly to device.
