If you just want a non-threaded test application that does a function call
in response to your typing, I'd suggest using RedBoot - it can run in RAM,
and it is designed to be extensible in many ways including the command
list.

But if you want something threaded and which waits for serial input
asynchronously and the like, so that other threads can run freely, then...

Not AFIAK; that would be a far more sophisticated application.
