Description
I am using a product that uses the following binary encoding to send packets over serial.
Adding a custom end of line in SimpleUsbTerminal will allow to use the resulting file directly. Today I use 0x0A as and of line. Each packet in the mentioned protocol has a header and 0x0a in this header. So I got a line with part of the packet , and beginning of the header of the next packet.
Adding custom end of the line will allow me to set it 0xBC and I will have a timestamp and the whole packet in a single line. That will be a great improvement !
Packet Coding
=============
SLIP_START 0xAB
SLIP_END 0xBC
SLIP_ESC 0xCD
SLIP_ESC_START 0xAC
SLIP_ESC_END 0xBD
SLIP_ESC_ESC 0xCE
SLIP ENCODING PROCEDURE
Add a SLIP_START to encoded packet
For each byte in unencoded packet, do the following:
- If the byte is not equal to SLIP_START, SLIP_END, or SLIP_ESC, add it to encoded packet.
- Otherwise, replace it with a SLIP_ESC followed by the corresponding escaped character.
Finally: add a SLIP_END to encoded packet

after adding the custom end of the line add setting it to 0xBC:
