Minicom on Mac
From FrogspawnWiki
I've just finished setting up minicom on a Mac to use a Prolific pl2303 usb to serial adapter. Here's what I did
- downloaded the driver from here
- installed the driver and rebooted my mac as per the instructions
- checked in /dev, the usb to serial device was there as tty.usbserial
- installed minicom from ports using sudo ports install minicom
- edited /opt/local/etc/minirc.dfl inserting the config lines from my minicom guide
- added the alias from the guide
Job's a good one! Now I have minicom working perfectly in Terminal.app for Cisco devices.
