Good afternoon folks,

Currently Haiku has no serial port console application.

BeOS came with SerialConnect which won't run under Haiku due to #2161

I started writing a Terminal application similar to SerialConnect. I
guess I should hurry up finishing it and commit it I guess.

Ah. Good news indeed :)

If you push what you have so far I definitely could give you a hand with
it if desired.

How robust and capable is the current serial communication ?? is it reliable yet ?

The usb_serial / pc_serial drivers actually seem to be working fairly well, we just need applications
to take advantage of it.
