Keyboard shortcuts 
  As Gtkterm 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 Gtkterm 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

NOTES on RS485:
     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.


Building:
 GtkTerm has a few dependencies-
* Gtk+2.0 (version 2.6 or higher)
* vte (version 0.20 or higher)
* intltool (version 0.40.0 or higher)

 Once these dependencies are installed, most people should simply run:
  ./configure
  make

 And to install:
  make install

 If you wish to install Gtkterm someplace other than the default directory, use:
   ./configure --prefix=/install/directory
 Then build and install as usual.

 See INSTALL for more detailed build and install options.
