Re^2: [OT] Filtering / Highlighting serial port input / PuTTY output

If you just need a resizeable terminal to run Perl in, you could always use Cygwin's mintty or ConEmu.

ConEmu did the trick, combined with pryrt++'s plink idea. It took a little configuration to make it look like a boring console window again, mainly invoking cmd.exe without parameters, using the default windows color scheme, and hiding the status bar and the tab bar.

Thank you!

And now that perl is involved, and ConEmu supports ANSI, I already consider using ANSI sequences to highlight matching lines instead of filtering out all irrelevant lines ...

Highlighting interesting lines instead:
