Title: New Serial Terminal Program
Post by: airman00 on May 10, 2009, 05:49:27 PM
I've recently been working with controlling an RF module from a virtual serial port. I realized that with some minor editing I could turn my program into a full-fledged robotics serial terminal program.

So what kind of functions do you guys want?

So far here's my ideas for it:

1. COM1 through COM20
2. all the baud rates and handshaking and all those settings and stuff
3. Send data in decimal, ASCII, binary, or hex format
4. Receive data in decimal, ASCII, binary, or hex
5. Save serial log to text file
6. ASCII Lookup Chart
7. Send data macros
