Brilliant app that works fairly reliably with my cheap pl2303 clone usb-c to RS232 cable. Shame it doesn't use hardware flow control.

Absolutely flawless app, worked first try. no errors, no hiccups just pure efficiency. one of the best ways to indirectly send messages or recieve from your microcontroller. 5 stars!
