This might be useful. Some serial port terminals such as gtkterm have a similar feature. The displayed format could be similar to the one from the hd command, displaying both hex and (extended) ASCII.

Maybe it could be possible to instead allow launching external terminal software? I don't think Arduino IDE's Serial Monitor is worth time spent on improving it. There are times better programs that could instead be launched by the IDE.

Add serial monitor send/receive encoding options

- Add "send as <encoding>" dropdown menu.
- Add "receive as <encoding>" dropdown menu.

Sending and receiving can be done in any encoding specified in StandardCharsets with the additional option to send comma-separated bytes and receive newline-separated bytes directly.

This fixes #4452 and offers an easy implementation for issue #4632.

...if that could be done user-friendly i.e. so that the serial port gets released to compile automagically.
