As Sellerie is often used like a terminal emulator,
the shortcut keys are assigned to <ctrl><shift>
, rather than just
<ctrl>
. This allows the user to send keystrokes of the form <ctrl>X
and not have Sellerie intercept them.
<ctrl><shift>L
-- Clear screen<ctrl><shift>R
-- Send file<ctrl><shift>Q
-- Quit<ctrl><shift>S
-- Configure port<ctrl><shift>V
-- Paste<ctrl><shift>C
-- Copy<ctrl>B
-- Send break
The RS485 flow control is a software user-space emulation and therefore may not work for all configurations (won't respond quickly enough). If this is the case for your setup, you will need to either use a dedicated RS232 to RS485 converter, or look for a kernel level driver. This is an inherent limitation to user space programs.
Sellerie has a few dependencies:
- Gtk+4 (version 4.4 or higher)
- vte 2.91-gtk4 (version 0.69 or higher, if not available will be pulled in through meson submodule)
Once these dependencies are installed, most people should simply run:
meson build
ninja -C build
And to install:
ninja -C build install
If you wish to install Sellerie someplace other than the default directory, use:
meson build -Dprefix=/install/directory
for an unconfigured build or
meson config build -Dprefix=/install/directory
for an already existing build.
Then build and install as usual.
