Help with googling serial port terminal substitute under linux...

[Terminator3]

I am trying to google some simple terminal with aligned fonts, where i can send and get data in HEX format to rs-232 ports. Basically i want to see two windows: tx and rx. But still did not found any friendly. Googled for serial port terminal linux, etc... There must be something!

what about "cutecom"? I use it for arduino and teensy development/debugging.

Cutecom is a graphical serial terminal, like minicom.
It is aimed mainly at hardware developers or other people who need a
terminal to talk to their devices. It features lineoriented interface
instead of character-oriented, xmodem, ymodem, zmodem support
(requires the lrzsz package) and hexadecimal input and output among
other things.

Thank you, previously i searched in internet and found cutecom with wrong screenshot, so even did not tried it.
I use USB-232 cable with PL2303 chip, and other USB cable with FTDI chip. Driver was already on the system (LINUX MINT) for both. FTDI's receives data, but it looks wrong (some wrong bytes). Settings are the same for both cables (9600,n,1, etc etc..). Do not know what is the problem. But still can use PL2303's.

If somebody needs this too it might be useful:

apt install cutecom

After connecting USB-232 cable, run this command from console:

sudo chmod 666 /dev/ttyUSB0

then change /dev/ttyS0 to /dev/ttyUSB0 in cutecom by keyboard,
push button "open device", select "hex output", "hex input". Very nice

Minicom under linux is best...

GtkTerm works well too, if you prefer working with a GUI.
