GtkTerm is a "clone" of the famous Hyperterminal. But it is much more simple, that is to say, that it can only communicate with a serial link and that it does not support all the modem protocols.
If you are searching for a more complete application of that kind that is more dedicated to be used with a modem, have a look at minicom. I wrote this gtkterm because I am electronician, and there was no simple program that could be used to dialog on a serial port easily.
