Installing TinyTERM on 64-Bit Linux Systems

Friday, October 5th, 2012

TinyTERM for Linux is a 32-bit application. It requires 32-bit libraries for the Gnome and KDE desktop environments. These are not available on 64-bit Linux systems, so TinyTERM for Linux is not currently supported on those systems. Nor is it supported on any Linux system that does not include Gnome or KDE, such as Ubuntu 12.

However, TinyTERM can be made to run on some 64-bit Linux systems. It requires installing 32-bit libraries, which may be available. For example, the following shell script will allow TinyTERM to run on CentOS 6:

# Tell yum to install 32-bit packages in addition to 64-bit

grep -v multilib_policy /etc/yum.conf > /etc/yum.conf.TMP #if previously put in, remove it
mv -f /etc/yum.conf{.TMP,}

echo "multilib_policy=all" >> /etc/yum.conf

# Stuff needed by TinyTerm (itx)
# (add in 32-bit versions of these)

yum -y install glibc
yum -y install zlib
yum -y install libX11
yum -y install libXext
yum -y install libstdc++
yum -y install libXdmcp
yum -y install libSM
yum -y install libXrender
yum -y install libXfont
yum -y install fontconfig

Similar scripts should work for most other distros of Linux.

TinyTERM for iOS Loses Shift Lock When Switching Keyboards

Friday, August 17th, 2012

In TinyTERM ITX 2 and TinyTERM Pro for iOS, as well as TinyTERM ITX 3270 for iPad, double-tapping the Shift key in the included keyboard layouts sets shift lock. But if you switch to another layout or hide the keyboard, that shift lock is lost.

The workaround is to create a new keyboard layout that has a shift-locked layout for quick access. But Century Software has had a request to restore the lock status instead.

Friday, August 17th, 2012

Using any TinyTERM product for iOS, start a long display command. It doesn’t matter whether you’re using cat to display a long file, ls -R for a recursive directory listing, or any other command. Anything that produces several hundred lines of text will do. That text will take several seconds to start displaying.
