Add the ability to send an array of bytes from the serial-monitor. You write them using a comma seperated list of hex, oct, dec or binary numbers. It gives an error when the string is malformated. In this case a new exception, ByteStringException, occures which is getting cought.

For the example, I used a simple program that just uses System.println on every byte it receives. |

This would be really useful. Any plans to ever merge this? |

This might not be the best way to do it after all. It might be better to have a "smart escape" option or something. Something like "This is a string.\n\O377\n\OxFF" |

Sorry for the so-late reply. Indeed, everything we add to the user interface makes the IDE harder to understand, for novices and students especially. Escaping chars might be a better solution, although, if you have such a requirement, you shouldn't really use the built in serial monitor. You should instead use some specialized app like putty or cutecom. |
