[Mspgcc-users] Launchpad UART using Linux tools?

[Yama P. <yam...@gm...>]

Hi,

Please help me figure out UART using a Launchpad, and Linux!

It might be something obvious that I am missing somehow, after several 
days hunting.

the goal: transfer data (text) to an MSP430 on the Launchpad, which then 
is used there as input for some further processing
AND
get feedback from the MSP430 that gets displayed in the host computer - 
ideally in such a form that can be used as input for something running 
there.

printf() seems to be a major issue in the middle of all this.

I routinely manage things with msp230-gcc, mspdebug, from Terminal.

Thank you!
