Description

Tool for attaching simply to VMware Fusion Serial Consoles.

VMware Fusion will, if appropriately coerced, emulate UARTs in guests and expose them to the host as UNIX domain sockets. This tool allows you to attach your terminal emulator directly to one of those sockets without having to lark about with socat and screen.

Also works well with a VirtualBox host and a NetBSD guest.

Install

From pkgsrc-wip (no binary package):

cd /usr/pkgsrc/wip/vmware-sercons && make install clean

Dependencies

No port depends on this one.
