Populate the text box in the Serial Monitor?

Hi, I'm looking for a way to programmatically populate the text box in the arduino Serial Monitor with text. In my use case, I enter text quite a bit in the serial monitor text box and want the text retained in the text box after it's submitted so that it can be easily edited following that event. Any way to do this? I haven't found a function in the Serial.* documentation that can populate the text box. Any help is appreciated. Thanks much.

Hi,
the data you want to send is inside an arquivo.txt?
If yes, you can use other programs such as Hterm.exe which connects to the arduino and sends files.

" HTerm - der-hammer "

But you can use any other feature that sends data via serial (USB) from your PC.

The text box has a memory. Previously sent messages can be loaded into the field by pressing the ↑ and ↓ keys.

I am unaware of any way to do this. I usually re,y on keeping something I am editing and resending in that place where things live when you cut them, and just paste into the input area.

Yes. CoolTerm e.g. lets you define strings of characters and send them with a click.
