Are you sure you got the newline in the correct place? IMHO it looks like it should be after the format parameter
Interesting, never heard of screen
before. What is your use case for it?
Concerning the output, xxd
shows:

which means that the probe is doing it's output correctly (or at least as intended): every line ends with a linefeed which is quite common in Linux world.
Perhaps your terminal program which you use in screen
is broken?
I also agree with @JimmyPedersen that the carriage return is not placed correctly.
screen is a very useful Linux tool. It lets you keep processes running even when logged off. Use case is log in to a Linux box using ssh. start screen and start some script. The script runs and will take hours to complete. Exit screen, close ssh session. Do something valuable. Then after some hours log in using ssh again, open the screen session and you can see the script has finished. It can also handle the serial line.
I agree that it is normal for Linux text files to only have a \n to signal the next line. On terminal interfaces like the serial interface both \r and \n are needed. With \r only you can overwrite your text and therefore can create progress bars or update values without printing a new line with every update.
Therefore it makes sense to have \r and \n at the end of a line in a Linux terminal.
Are you sure you got the newline in the correct place? IMHO it looks like it should be after the format parameter
Good catch, thanks! I have moved the carriage return to the end of the format specifier, per my latest commit.
if you introduce a cmake option for this feature (which defaults to off), I will merge this.
Done :-)
Now it is fine. Thank you for your patience
Description
When using GNU screen, which does not automatically add carriage returns after new-lines, text wraps unnaturally across the console
For example:
This commit addresses the issue by explicitly adding carriage returns at the end of all calls to picoprobe_info() and similar functions. I am not sure if this is generally useful, but it certainly will benefit me, so I am sharing just in case.
