on Ubuntu. He also helped me to fix some bugs and proposed many nice features. Don't forget to

Teunis van Beelen has written a nice [helper program](https://gitlab.com/Teuniz/rs232-console) to use tek4010 with
a serial link. This is beta-test software at the moment. Feedback to rricharz77@gmail.com is very much appreciated.
First, install the helper program. The helper program is on gitlab, not github.

Once this works, you can use it with tek4010 as follows:
./tek4010 [options of tek4010] rs232-console [options of rs232-console]
./tek4010 [options of tek4010] rs232-console [options of rs232-console]
It has happened that the serial port remained locked after tek4010 is quit. I think this has
been fixed, but if it still happens, please report details to rricharz77@gmail.com, and use,
pkill rs232-console
pkill rs232-console
to kill any still running rs232-console process and unlock the serial port.
The serial connection was tested on a PiDP-11 and a historical PDP-11/73 using RT11. The
COPY FILENAME.PLT TT: command was used in RT11 to avoid the filtering of some control codes
in TYPE. The tests were made using MX-Linux and a FTDI USB to RS232 converter to connect to
the serial port of the PDP-11.
