Can someone please package minicom for /tinycorelinux/6.x/x86/ ?

Hi valuequest.

I was able to compile latest minocom v2.7 no problem, just needs ncurses-dev.tcz during compile. Would you like to try compiling yourself or would you like me to PM you a link so you can test drive the extension?

I appreciate your prompt response nitram! I would like to test drive the compilation you've done if you wouldn't mind sending me a link. Thanks!

i recommend picocom instead.
else if you have it anyways, screen works fine, too.

Recompiled proper for TC 6 x86, opens fine in terminal on my system.
Don't use the software so can't check how it actually works.
valuequest please see PM.

I don't see a picocom.tcz available in the /6.x/x86 repository either. Has someone already compiled and packaged it?

I will try the minicom 2.7 compilation out tomorrow... thanks again for your super prompt (and detailed) reply nitram!

Sorry, I thought I had uploaded picocom, now I see I have an old version I made on tc 4.x, but no source any more.
It's easy to compile it, so please go ahead
