KPrintF on the Amiga is used to print debug messages. By default it will output to SER: in 9600 baud. (There is also DKPrintF which will output to PAR:).

To grab this output when running an application under FS-UAE, you can do the following:

1. Setup serial re-direction in FS-UAE:

serial_port = /some/file/somewhere

2. Start socat:

socat pty,raw,echo=0,link=/some/file/somewhere -,raw,echo=0

3. Start the emulator and run your application. All KPrintF’s should now appear to the terminal where socat is running.
