%E4%BD%BF%E7%94%A8%E4%BB%8B%E7%BB%8D

Linux下的Minicom的功能与Windows下的超级终端功能相似，可以通过串口控制外部的硬件
设备.适于在linux通过超级终端对嵌入式设备行管理.同样也可以使用minicom对外置Modem
进行控制.

GTES 10,10.5,11版本都包含minicom包，你可以直接安装他们:

# rpm -ivh minicom-xxx.rpm

源码包下载地址:

minicom/

安装源码包:

# tar zxf minicom-2.2.tar.gz
# cd minicom-2.2
# ./configure
# make
# make install

第一次运行minicom，需要进行minicom的设置:

# minicom -s
