RealTerm Alternatives for Linux
RealTerm is not available for Linux but there are some alternatives that runs on Linux with similar functionality. The best Linux alternative is CuteCom, which is both free and Open Source. If that doesn't suit you, our users have ranked more than 10 alternatives to RealTerm and eight of them are available for Linux so hopefully you can find a suitable replacement. Other interesting Linux alternatives to RealTerm are HTerm (Free), GtkTerm (Free, Open Source), NoTer (Free, Open Source) and moserial (Free, Open Source).
