NAME¶
ttylog - serial device logger
SYNOPSIS¶
ttylog [-b|--baud] [-d|--device] [-f|--flush] [-t|--timeout] >

If you are not using the timeout option, you can stop it running
by pressing a ctrl-c when it's going to the screen or doing "kill -HUP
nnnn" (where nnnn is the process ID for ttylog) if running in the
background.
