I see this line in

https://github.com/jplaut/vim-arduino-ino/blob/master/plugin/vim-arduino-serial#L8

Also, ls /dev/tty.* lists nothing on my Linux box (there's only /dev/tty):

Per the Ino Arduino website, the Ino plugin works on both Linux and Mac so building and running the project should be fine on both platforms. The serial monitor script is written in Applescript so will only work on Mac. If someone would like to write a similar script for Linux, that'd be great.

/dev/tty contains references to serial devices attached to your computer and therefore will be empty unless your arduino is connected. For info on TTY, check out http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Text-Terminal-HOWTO-7.html

The ino serial command looks for picocom, so I just installed that and changed my ArduinoSerial function toexecute "!ino serial".
