With the -l flag, the IBM line characters are displayed untranslated. One can create a special termcap entry for use with minicom on theĬonsole, that initializes the screen to raw mode so that in conjunction This is handy for use in the MINICOM environment variable With this flag, you can override the environment '-a on', but if you are using such a terminal you can (must!) supply the Some terminals, notably Televideo's, have rottenĪttribute handling (serial instead of parallel). H, -displayhex Turn on output in hex mode. w, -wrap Turns line-wrap on at startup by default.

L, -iso Ditto but assume screen uses an ISO8859 character set. (Linux in a special mode, Coherent and SCO). Many PC-unix clones will display character correctly without translation With thisįlag on, minicom will try to translate the IBM line characters to ASCII. l, -ansi Literal translation of characters with the high bit set. That have the relevant information in their termcap or This only works on terminals that support it and M, -metakey8 Same as -m, but assumes that your Meta key sets the 8th bit of theĬharacter high (sends 128 + character code). That sets the highest bit of the character. MinicomĪssumes that your Meta key sends the ESC prefix, not the other variant Option when you have a keyboard supporting Meta or ALT keys. Key, it's handy to set the default command key to Ctrl-A and use this This is the default in 1.80Īnd it can also be configured in one of minicom's menus, but if you useĭifferent terminals all the time, of which some don't have a Meta or ALT m, -metakey Override command-key with the Meta or ALT key.

Users who are given access to a modem are responsible enough for theirĪctions. is made, so a normal user could interfere with things like It is potentially dangerous though: no check for lockįiles etc. Is handy if you quit from minicom without resetting, and then want to Minicom will skip the initialization code. Reasonable defaults are already compiled in. This is very handy if minicom refuses to start up because your system hasĬhanged, or for the first time you run minicom. Not initialize, but puts you directly into the configuration menu. etc/minicom/minirc.dfl with this option. Interpreter, capture to file, multiple users with individual configurations,Īnd more.
