       I may have a need to use a serial terminal (over usb but still) a bit in future. I made it basically work just using "screen" pointed at the /dev/tty device. Problem is, the UI of the  thing I'm serial-ing into just in a few places requires a Ctrl-Q ... and in Mint in a normal terminal window running screen in this way... it doesn't work. It just doesn't do the thing Ctrl+Q is meant to do.Any ideas?

       @bloor One typically used minicom instead of screen for such things, but I don't recall off hand how it deals with CTL-Q .... Maybe with a shot though

       @bloor @bloor Although I guess since CTL-Q is XON there may not be a workaround for it over serial  so it possibly won't work over anything unless you can remap the app somehow 🤔

       @penguin42 @sxa @bloor Here's how I solve it. First, I download a code like this:http://www.zaitcev.us/things/tmp/kermit.cThen, I run gcc -o kermit kermit.cFinally   kermit ctlb /dev/ttyUSB0 38400It passes Ctrl-Q down to the target.
