DTerm Open Alternatives
DTerm Open is described as 'Material based Serial Communication app with saved settings, night mode, 3 different display settings and the ability to directly edit, save and clear data' and is an app in the Network & Admin category. There are more than 10 alternatives to DTerm Open for Windows, Linux, Mac and FreeBSD. The best alternative is Tera Term, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like DTerm Open are RealTerm (Free, Open Source), HTerm (Free), CuteCom (Free, Open Source) and GtkTerm (Free, Open Source).
- Tera Term (Pro) is a free software terminal emulator (communication program) for MS-Windows. It supports VT100 emulation, telnet connection, serial port connection, and so on.
- RealTerm is a terminal program specially designed for capturing, controlling and debugging binary and other difficult data streams. It is far better for debugging comms than HyperTerminal. It has no support for dialing modems, BBS, etc. - that is what HyperTerminal does.
- HTerm is a terminal emulator for serial communication.
- CuteCom is a graphical serial terminal aimed mainly at hardware developers or other people who need a terminal to talk to their devices.
