<center><h1>TERMS - OS X Terminal Program</h1></center>

This is a simple single line terminal server program.  That is it takes a connection in on a TCP/IP port and connects via full duplex connection to a serial port attached to the machine.  This allows remote users to connect through a serial port on a machine attached to some device.

Using a simple shell script the TERMS server can be used as a local VT-100 serial terminal.  This allows an OS X machine to connect to RS-232 devices.

In addition to the terminal server the program also includes a full copy of the [http://www.lua.org | Lua Language] and extensions to support interactions with the serial connection.  This way Lua scripts can be used to do actions based on serial states.
