Serial Monitor that allows for reading and writing to serial ports. Official issue tracking repository for Microsoft's Serial Monitor VS Code extension.
It would be really helpful if we could list /dev/pts/X ports. They support the same interface and would be easy to implement.
Another option to quickly achieve this is allowing the user to specify the port (just a text input?)
For more advanced users you could also add a port glob setting, maybe defaulting to:
^\/dev\/tty(USB|S|ACM)\d+$ on linux
^COM\d+$ on windows.
That way the user can filter their options (and add other ports not currently included).
For reference, my use-case is:
Embedded project with a USB serial port
Native/simulator project that uses the same code, but replaces the USB with a pseudo-terminal instead
This allows the embedded and native projects to behave nearly identically and is very helpful vs stdin.
