Hi all,
i must do a little script that send AT command at ttyUSB3..
for example:
Start Minicom:
Set serial port ttyUSB3
AT+CREG?
if response != OK then do something
...other AT command (open a socket tcp/ip with at comman)
Send a file .txt for example.
exit minicom.
I saw on the network command "expect" but I have not undarstand how to launch minicom and give it commands to set the right port ..
thanks for help
I don't have a modem now (left it in Antarctica believe it or not), so it is hard to test/script this for you, but Corona is certainly right that you would not use minicom.
PPPD comes with 'chat' which is a good way to do the initial parts of opening connection. I would use that. Again, untested:

Reason: save stdout fd
hello. i'm attempting to use minicom in linux, but i'm having some difficulties. When i type in "minicom", the application opens up. It says 'starting minicom/finding modem'(something like that). However, once it actually starts, I can't do anything. No matter what I type in, it doesn't work. ... (2 Replies)
Does anyone have a working minicom script they would care to post as I can't get the scripting working and the scriptdemo and unixlogin sample scripts are on my system either.
Thanx,

Hi all,
I have some trouble getting stty to talk to some serial/usb converter.
Getting minicom to work was however quite simple after I entered the following settings in addition to its standard-setup:
pu port /dev/ttyUSB0
pu baudrate 19200
pu bits 8
pu... (3 Replies)
This is what I've tried:
#!/bin/sh
send sh
send showifs
send exit
! killall minicom
My problem is that for some reason when I do this it doesn't give me the results of the prior commands sent like showifs
So I suspect my syntax is wrong. (1 Reply)
I'm a fairly new user to Linux based systems and am still a little uncomfortable with using the command interface. I'm trying to get my feet wet but have unfortunately hit a wall and am actually not even sure what I am trying to accomplish is at all possible.

Hey All,
I am trying to find something similar to minicom, but it needs the ability to be ran during a remote dialup session on the remote
device's side.
If I dial into the remote server (*using minicom) and then try to run minicom on the remote server I get the following:

shell-quote
SHELL-QUOTE(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation SHELL-QUOTE(1)NAME
shell-quote - quote arguments for safe use, unmodified in a shell command
SYNOPSIS
shell-quote [switch]... arg...
DESCRIPTION
shell-quote lets you pass arbitrary strings through the shell so that they won't be changed by the shell. This lets you process commands
or files with embedded white space or shell globbing characters safely. Here are a few examples.
EXAMPLES
ssh preserving args
When running a remote command with ssh, ssh doesn't preserve the separate arguments it receives. It just joins them with spaces and
passes them to "$SHELL -c". This doesn't work as intended:
ssh host touch 'hi there' # fails
It creates 2 files, hi and there. Instead, do this:
cmd=`shell-quote touch 'hi there'`
ssh host "$cmd"
This gives you just 1 file, hi there.
process find output
It's not ordinarily possible to process an arbitrary list of files output by find with a shell script. Anything you put in $IFS to
split up the output could legitimately be in a file's name. Here's how you can do it using shell-quote:
eval set -- `find -type f -print0 | xargs -0 shell-quote --`
debug shell scripts
shell-quote is better than echo for debugging shell scripts.
debug() {
[ -z "$debug" ] || shell-quote "debug:" "$@"
}
With echo you can't tell the difference between "debug 'foo bar'" and "debug foo bar", but with shell-quote you can.
save a command for later
shell-quote can be used to build up a shell command to run later. Say you want the user to be able to give you switches for a command
you're going to run. If you don't want the switches to be re-evaluated by the shell (which is usually a good idea, else there are
things the user can't pass through), you can do something like this:
user_switches=
while [ $# != 0 ]
do
case x$1 in
x--pass-through)
[ $# -gt 1 ] || die "need an argument for $1"
user_switches="$user_switches "`shell-quote -- "$2"`
shift;;
# process other switches
esac
shift
done
# later
eval "shell-quote some-command $user_switches my args"
OPTIONS --debug
Turn debugging on.
--help
Show the usage message and die.
--version
Show the version number and exit.
