This is a minor release of picocom with mostly bug fixes, a few improvements, and a few new features. In no particular order:
-
Added the --raise-dtr and --raise-rts options, for symmetry with --lower-dtr and --lower-rts (see manual page for details)
-
Added custom baudrate support for FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and DragonflyBSD (in additions to Linux and MacOS that were already supported)
-
Better build support for custom baudrates. Now custom baudrate support is enabled by default for some systems (for Linux, kernels > 2.6.0, x86, and x86_64, for Intel Macs with macOS / OSX >= 10.4, and for some BDSs).
You can always explicitly enable custom baudrate support for other systems (see Makefile) and you can explicitly disable it, even for the systems it is automatically enabled for (again, see Makefile).
To see if custom baudrate support is enabled in your build, run picocom with the --help command-line option.
-
Other small improvements and several bug fixes that are not listed here. See the commit logs for details.
As always, feedback, corrections, suggestions, and patches are welcome. Open issues here or email me.
