NAME

   towitoko-tester  ---  Towitoko driver CT-API interface tester tool

SYNOPSIS

   towitoko-tester

DESCRIPTION

   towitoko-tester  is  a  simple  tool  that allows executing some simple
   commands on a smartcard using a Towitoko smartcard reader.  It  can  be
   used  to  test that a smartcard can be properly recognized, and that it
   can be read and written.

   The tool provides a text based menu interface.  Commands  that  can  be
   executed  via  the menu depends on the reader card insertion status and
   the type of card inserted. For memory  cards  it  permits  reading  and
   writing  data bytes, checking and changing the PIN. For processor cards
   it permits selecting, reading and updating binary card files.

   Several readers on different ports can be used at a time. The text menu
   allows opening, closing and changing current port. The smartcard can be
   inserted and removed from any initialized reader at any time.  The tool
   will  automatically  detect  when the card is inserted and removed, and
   will update the information shown in the menu. However you must refresh
   the menu to see any change reflected.

   If you have installed pcscd package, and have configured your reader to
   be  used  by  pscsd,  you'll  need  to  stop  the  pcsc  daemon  before
   initializing the reader with towitoko-tester.
