The Termite application was developed to be an easy to use and easy to configure RS232 terminal. It uses an interface similar to that of "messenger" or "chat" programs, with a large window that contains all received data and an edit line for typing in strings to transmit.
Highlights of the utility are the ease of installation (possibly with pre-configured settings) using a heuristic search for the appropriate COM port and, as was mentioned, its user-friendliness.
NOTE:
Free for personal and commercial use
Here are some key features of "Termite":
· Plug-in interface for pre-processing or alternative views of the data, logging received data to a file, adding a toolbar to Termite, and other functionality that you may think of.
· A history of commands that you typed, with auto-completion.
· Resizeable main window, with a "keep window on top" option.
· Ability to run with pre-configured settings from a read-only medium (no installation is necessary).
· Support for non-standard Baud rates (MIDI, DMX512).
· Different colouring for transmitted and received data (blue=transmitted, green=received).
· Data can be forwarded between two RS232 ports.
· Search dialog for transmitted/received text (right-click pop-up menu).
· Save or print the contents of the transmitted/received text (right-click pop-up menu).
