Linux Fu: Eavesdropping On Serial | Hackaday

=> ↺ Linux Fu: Eavesdropping On Serial | Hackaday

In the old days, if you wanted to snoop on a piece of serial gear, you probably had a serial monitor or, perhaps, an attachment for your scope or logic analyzer. Today, you can get cheap logic analyzers that can do the job, but what if you want a software-only solution? Recently, I needed to do a little debugging on a USB serial port and, of course, there isn’t really anywhere to easily tie in a monitor or a logic analyzer. So I started looking for an alternate solution.
If you recall, in a previous Linux Fu we talked about pseudoterminals which look like serial ports but actually talk to a piece of software. That might make you think: why not put a piece of monitor software between the serial port and a pty? Why not, indeed? That’s such a good idea that it has already been done. When it works, it works well. The only issue is, of course, that it doesn’t always work.

Tmux Keyboard Shortcuts - Make Tech Easier

=> ↺ Tmux Keyboard Shortcuts - Make Tech Easier

Tmux is a simple yet powerful terminal multiplexer for UNIX-based machines. It allows you to seamlessly create and manage multiple terminal windows from a single teletype terminal (TTY). Tmux does this by creating self-contained pseudo-terminals which it serves to the user. This approach allows tmux to create terminal windows that persist across sessions. Not only that, this also allows it to easily transfer information and modify different terminals.
Because of that, tmux is a staple program for both everyday users and system administrators alike. Its ability to provide a persistent terminal session means that you can run tmux remotely and run programs without the risk of terminating them upon disconnecting. Furthermore, its ability to manipulate terminal windows makes it a simple window manager for power users.
