gensiotool(1) General Commands Manual gensiotool(1) NAME gensio - Tool for doing gensio connections SYNOPSIS gensiotool [options] io2 DESCRIPTION The gensiotool program allows connections to be made using gensios It creates two gensios called io1 and io2. io1 is by default the local terminal and io2 must be specified. By default, gensiotool make two normal gensios and establishes connec- tions to each of them. Any data that comes in on one gensio is trans- mitted on the other. For a description of how to specify a gensio, see the gensio documenta- tion. OPTIONS -i|--input io1 By default io1 is the local terminal ( /dev/tty ) for a tty stdin, or the program's stdin/stdout for a non-tty stdin. This lets another gensio be specified as the device to hook to io2. -a|--accepter By default io2 makes an outgoing connection. This modifies io2 to be a gensio accepter and waits for an incoming connection. Once the connection comes in, the accepter is closed and opera- tions proceeds as normal. --signature Serial server signature reported to the remote end. If an ac- cepter is specified (currently only a telnet RFC2217 server) the signature given is used instead of "gensiotool". -d|--debug Generate debugging output. Specifying more than once increases the output. -e|--escchar char Specify a character to use for the escape character. Setting it to -1 disables the escape character. This can either be a deci- mal or hexadeximal number or ^x to set a control character. By default it is ^\ if io1 is the default and stdin is a tty, or disabled otherwise. See ESCAPES below for more details on the escape character. Only handled on io1. -p|--printacc If -a is specified, print out all the accept addresses chosen by the program. -n|--extra-threads <n> Spawn <n> extra threads to handle gensio operations. Useful for scalabiity with --server. --server When an accept happens, don't disable accept, but continue to accept connections, and won't close if all the connections go away.. If this is not specified, it shut down the accepter when a connection comes in and will terminate when that connection closes. --version Print the version number and exit. -h|--help Help output ESCAPES If the escape character is received on io1, the character is not trans- ferred and the program waits for another character. If the other char- acter is also the escape character, a single escape character is sent. If the other character is not recognized as a valid escape, it is ig- nore and not transferred. Upper and lower case are equivalent. Escape characters are: q Quit the program. b Send a break to io2. Ignored if io2 does not support break. d Dump serial data for io2. Ignored if io2 is not a serial gen- sio. s Set the serial port (baud) rate for io2. Ignored if io2 is not a serial gensio. After this, the serial port speed must be typed, terminated by a new line. Invalid speeds are ignore, use escchar-d to know if you set it right. n, o, e Set the parity on io2 to none, odd, or even. Ignored if io2 is not a serial gensio. 5, 6, 7, 8 Set the data size on io2 to the number of bits. Ignored if io2 is not a serial gensio. 1, 2 Set the number of stop bits to 1 or 2 on io2 bits. Ignored if io2 is not a serial gensio. x, r, f Sets flow control to xonxoff, rtscts, or none. SEE ALSO gensio(5) KNOWN PROBLEMS None.
