Requesting func to retrieve current parameters of a connection #6

Closed SMerrony closed 5 years ago

SMerrony commented 5 years ago

I've switched https://github.com/SMerrony/DasherG to use this package for serial I/O and it's working well - thanks.

It would be useful to be able to query the current state of an active serial connection. Eg. a GetMode() func.

Hey! Yes, such a function is missing and is undoubtedly useful.

Currently, I am on vacation. I will get back to this in the following days.

Your terminal emulator is a very intriguing project and I am happy that sers is working for you:) What made you switch packages for serial access?

SMerrony commented 5 years ago

Thanks, no rush.

I wrote up some notes on developing DasherG in Go: https://gomerrony.blogspot.com/2018/08/terminal-emulation-fun-with-go-gui.html

The main driver for switching to your package was proper BREAK support.

Hey!

Sorry, it took a bit longer than a couple of days to back to this.

Your terminal project - together with the maintenance of your minicomputer - are very cool projects indeed.

I guess I got lucky then, I added break support because someone else asked for it :)

All that being said, I have added a GetMode() method. The changes are in branch getmode, see merge request #7. Does this look reasonable to you?

distributed commented 5 years ago

I merged the changes in #7.

Brilliant - thanks, using the new version/func now :-)
