What terminal program (similar to say TeraTerm) is best to use with LinuxCNC (Axis)?

I'm debugging a board that has a UART -> FTDI USB dongle that is sending debug information, and I want to view the information while running Axis.

The UART data is being sent at 115200, however I can slow it down if need be.

I imagine there is a Linux command to determine what port has been assigned to the FTDI dongle when I plug it in?

Gtkterm is rather good general purpose GUI terminal program. Tho a lot simple and less detailed interface.

To find the port to device mapping, the last couple of entries in demsg will have what you need.
You may also want to look at a udev rule so the device has the same entry under /dev. Google persistent naming for ftdi device or something similar.
