I finally got around to updating LogSer and ToSer with a newer version that I call sercat (inspired by netcat). It will transfer data between a serial port and stdin/stdout, and is useful for storing logs, sending small commands (i.e., starting a program and then collecting the log) and even makes a very primitive terminal emulator.
Unlike the last versions, this one requires MinGW (not cl.exe), since I use getopt.h
for options parsing.
Usage:
Run sercat.exe <com port> <options>
. Running with no parameters will give a help screen.
