Hi, after the replacement of JIMTCL with the new version, the command "puts" does not work as before. It prints nothing in the telnet connection, while is still working in the default console. Looking at the code, the reason is that the new jimtcl only prints to stdout. Of course, it's possible to modify jimtcl library, but the modification is quite invasive, and we would diverge from the main branch.
The solution I propose, is to switch away from "puts", in favour of "echo". The advantage is that "echo" is part of OpenOCD, so no change is required inside jimtcl. 1) the first patch in attachment enhances "echo" with the command option "-n", to replace "puts -nonewline" 2) this patch can be eventually skipped. Anyway, I would like your comments on it. In order to add help text to "echo" command, I have replaced the definition of the command inside the COMMAND_HANDLER syntax. Is this correct? In my tests it works properly. I do not know if there is any drawback. 3) this last patch replaces all the "puts" in the tcl files with "echo" Best Regards, Antonio Borneo
