What is CuteCom FOR LINUX?

CuteCom

CuteCom is a cool graphical serial terminal that works kind of like minicom. It’s designed mainly for hardware developers or anyone who needs to communicate with their devices easily.

Free Software for Everyone

The best part? CuteCom is free software! It’s available under the GNU General Public License Version 2, which you can find in the COPYING file. This awesome tool is built using the Qt library from Trolltech, making it both functional and user-friendly. If you're interested, you can check out its sourceforge project page.

Simple Installation and Uninstallation

CuteCom doesn't mess around with complex autotools like autoconf or automake. Instead, it uses a simple wrapper script to call qmake for setup. When you want to uninstall it, just delete the files named "cutecom" and "cutecom.desktop"—and voilà! You're done! Oh, and if you need to locate the config file, it's at ~/.qt/cutecomrc.
