I need a way to detect if a USB terminal is attached, so that I can decide which port to open my terminal on. If the user types a character over USB during boot, I open USB Console, otherwise I open UART Console.
(I also send a 'terminal probe request' during boot, so USB Console detection is automatic for most terminals 😊)
I like that this solution is less complex (i.e. more reliable) than calling
read()
or initializinglinenoise
oresp_console
