reading from a serial device

Yes. You just want to peek a view into the incoming serial data. You are looking for a solution (not a problem), it has to be easy, it has to be pain free. You just want to read incoming data from a serial device. It can not be that hard!

and then you google for a while until you find the answer:

apt-get install picocom
picocom -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0

This does the work, quite nice.
