Überblick
Simple, reliable and powerful terminal to ease connection to serial ports
Verlauf
BootTerm is a small serial-terminal CLI focused on the awkward moment when USB serial ports appear, disappear, and change names during board boot and flashing. It is a niche but polished tool for embedded developers working with SBCs, USB UART adapters, and bootloader consoles.
The README describes BootTerm as a simple, reliable terminal designed for ephemeral serial ports, especially USB-based ports on single-board computers. Its feature set grew around automatic port detection, waiting for new or any port, non-standard baud rates, break sequences, RTS/DTR toggling, captures, timestamps, and a single `bt` binary with no unusual dependencies.
The official GitHub tags show v0.1 through v0.5, with release metadata for v0.2 in December 2020, v0.3 and v0.4 in early 2021, and v0.5 in April 2024. Release names mention macOS support, ttyACM detection, timestamps, CRLF handling, and escape-mode refinements.
Adoption is mostly among embedded Linux and board bring-up users rather than the general terminal-emulator audience. Package-manager metadata in the input shows availability through Alpine, Debian, Homebrew, Nix, Scoop, and winget, which is broad for a deliberately tiny serial-port utility.
The common workflow is `bt` with no argument to connect to the most recently registered serial device, `bt -l` to list candidates, `bt -n` to wait for a newly attached USB serial device, and baud or control-pin options for board reset and bootloader interactions.
BootTerm matters to package nerds because it is a focused replacement for heavier terminal programs in one specific packaging niche: reproducible board bring-up scripts and USB serial workflows. Its single-binary, libc-only style makes it easy for distributions to ship and for cross-platform embedded users to trust.
