Hi Jason,

an on-line repository search & install feature?
That's the reason I wrote the mail. The plugin is integrated into
Creators source repository [1], but not build with the official packages.
You have two options for now:
1. Build Creator yourself
2. Find someone the builds Creator for you (e.g. a Linux distri)
Best regards,

Subject: [Qt-creator] Deployment of SerialTerminal plugin
Hi all,
the Serial Terminal plugin was added to Qt Creator in spring 2018. It
still has the experimental state, but I think the biggest problem is
that it is not included in the official Qt Creator builds. A lot of
potential users might not even know it exists.
Given the ongoing support for microcontrollers in Qt Creator, I think it
would be a good opportunity to deliver this plugin with Creator. It's
only dependency seems to be QSerialPort, which is a relatively
lightweight module and therefore should not hurt much.
O_o
Without knowing anything about this, it would probably be a help since I talk
to 3D printers (Arduinos) and other serial things quite often.
It would also be very cool if it could simulate a serial device so I could
mimic real hardware.
How would I go about finding and installing this plug in? I looked in Preferences,
nothing there, tried About Plugins.. doesn't seem to have an on-line repository
search & install feature?
