Like working with the various IDE's for code development that have a window panel for terminal output.
I'm more used to working with program development systems that have breakpoints, allow single stepping through assembly code and examining variable values and even processor registers. Working with Python is like writing in BASIC with the Radio Shack TRS80 home computer. I've gone back to the dark ages... However I do have CAN bus communications with the CANUSB functional in both directions to/from the CANOpen device. The next step is to see if I can use socketCAN instead of pySerial since then the component doesn't care if it's a CANUSB on the Pi4 or a HAT using an MCP2515. For the PC it would still have to be USB based but the component remains the same. If anyone is interested I'll post my serial-relays.py program.
