picocom: Minimal serial communications program

Name:	picocom	Vendor:	Aurora SPARC Linux
Version:	1.4	License:	GPL
Release:	3.al3	URL:	http://efault.net/npat/hacks/picocom/

Summary

As its name suggests, [picocom] is a minimal dumb-terminal emulation program. It is, in principle, very much like minicom, only it's "pico" instead of "mini"! It was designed to serve as a simple, manual, modem configuration, testing, and debugging tool. It has also served (quite well) as a low-tech "terminal-window" to allow operator intervention in PPP connection scripts (something like the ms-windows "open terminal window before / after dialing" feature). It could also prove useful in many other similar tasks. It is ideal for embedded systems since its memory footprint is minimal (less than 20K, when stripped).
