Those Uart tokens...

#1 Post by Sobrietytest » 11 Oct 2008 18:07

Can we have a control in the Uart terminal (PIC and dsPIC C) that turns off the 'Sent:' and 'Received:' tokens? I can understand why they exist but they're a PITA when you don't want them; if you're sending rapid (115200) readings to the Uart, the stream gets broken up by the tokens. It's annoying when you're monitoring the data but disasterous if you want to copy and paste the data into MS Excel.

I know you're going to give me a lesson on saving to file but it doesn't really work in the real world; I can't create a new file every time I want to monitor data - there would be thousands of them! It would be much easier to copy and paste the required part of the data stream into Excel.

You don't have to create a new file every time you want to get data. Just reuse the same one.

Or you could use one of the other thousands of terminal programs out there.
