GPS NMEA monitor software for the Pi

Hello All,
Anyone in the group know of a good GPS receiver software program for monitoring the NMEA data sent by a GPS receiver? I have looked on the net and found some Linux programs that display the position on maps but I have not found anything that will just a simple display of the basic S/N levels, lat/long, etc. Had thought this should be simple but I haven't found any such so far. Thanks...
Doug, k4cle

The NMEA data just streams as ASCII text, so you should be able to "see"
it in a terminal session

For serial number I guess you need to send the GPS a command also simple
ASCII.... I have no idea what...

I guess the NMEA command set is defined some where on the www ...

Hi Max, Yes, I can see the ASCII strings on my Pi using Minicom. So I know the NMEA data sentences are there. I just need a linux program to parse the data and put it into a human readable display, something like VisualGPS which works for that horrible OS known as Windows! Thanks, Doug, k4cle
