[cisco-voip] OT: mac book terminal program

[Frazee, Timothy]

Doesn't sound like it just works if you have to worry about drivers and
chipsets for a simple usb serial adapter.

After you get the driver nailed down there is also a port of the nix
term program, minicom:

I use this daily and it works real well.

First you need a driver for the serial cable.  Odds are it's got
a Prolific PL-2302 chip in it in which case use the driver here:

       http://www.prolific.com.tw/eng/downloads.asp?ID=31

This will create devices when you plug the cable in named:

       /dev/tty.usbserial
       /dev/cu.usbserial

You may use screen(1) to attach:

       $ screen /dev/tty.usbserial

Use ^A^\ to exit (control A, control backslash).
