git clone https://github.com/atrotech/comtest.git

cd comtest

gcc -o comtest comtest.c

Usage
./comtest -d /dev/ttyAMA3 -s 38400
Parameters

./comtest --help

comtest - interactive program of comm port
press [ESC] 3 times to quit
Usage: comtest [-d device] [-t tty] [-s speed] [-7] [-c] [-x] [-o] [-h]
-7 7 bit
-x hex mode
-o output to stdout too
-c stdout output use color
-h print this help
