+Terminal Compatibility
+======================
+If minicom doesn't see the LANG variable, it will try to fallback to
+make the layout more compatible, but uglier. Certain unsupported
+encodings will completely render the UI useless, so if the UI looks
+strange, try setting the following environment variable:
+
+LANG="en_US.UTF-8"
+
+Text Input Not Working
+======================
+Most development boards require Serial port setup -> Hardware Flow
+Control to be set to "No" to input text.
