Multiple Session Support

Friday, December 30th, 2011

TinyTERM for Linux currently supports only one emulation session. To work around this, multiple TinyTERMwindows can be opened, each with a separate session.

TinyTERM for Mac allows multiple windows, and multiple session tabs in a single window.

Century Software is currently working on allowing multiple emulation sessions in a single instance of TinyTERM for Linux.

Cannot Install on Ubuntu 11

Friday, December 30th, 2011

Ubuntu 11.04 introduced the Unity user interface, replacing the Gnome desktop required by TinyTERM ITX. Ubuntu also no longer includes a number of software packages required by TinyTERM ITX for install. This causes TinyTERM to report that its files were copied, but nothing is actually put into place.

Century Software is currently studying the changes to determine how much work will be needed for TinyTERM ITX to run under Unity.

Custom Keyboard Justification

Friday, December 30th, 2011

TinyTERM for iPad and TinyTERM ITX for iPhone both allow the user to build custom on-screen keyboards. The individual key rows are automatically centered when they are drawn. Century Software has received a request to allow the user to set a starting position for the keyboard, so that it can be left-justified.

Configure TinyTERM to show the vertical scrollbar. Then use the bottom right corner to resize the TinyTERM window. The scrollbar changes its width and leaves visual artifacts behind.

Removing Hostname History

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011

Every time a session is saved, TinyTERM stores the current hostname or IP address in the .tpx file. If the hostname is changed, both the previous and current address are stored. These can be accessed from a drop-down list on the Sessiontab of TinyTERM’s settings.

To remove this history list, open the .tpx file in a text editor. Search it for the line that starts:

node=

Delete all the addresses that should no longer be stored.

Century Software has received a request for a user interface option that will remove those extra addresses.

Use iPhone or iPad Camera as Barcode Scanner

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011

Currently TinyTERM ITX for iPhone or iPad can only use a barcode scanner that acts as a Bluetooth keyboard wedge. Century Software has had a request for TinyTERM ITX to use the onboard camera in the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad 2 as a barcode scanner.

Settings Button Disappears

Tuesday, November 15th, 2011

In TinyTERM ITX for iPhone, generate an SSH key. When that finishes, select the option to email the public key. After the email has finished sending, it returns automatically to TinyTERM ITX. But the title bar is missing and with it, the Settings button that allows you to move back a screen. You have to close TinyTERM ITX and reopen it to get that title bar back.

Error 4547 on Windows 7

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

On some Windows 7 systems, TinyTERM version 4.65.4985 (August 2011 release) will fail to run. Instead, the following error comes up:

Error (4547) Method Redraw Called With Invalid Object Instance

This is due to User Access Control (UAC) settings interfering with the TinyTERM install process. It’s caused by a bug in the install routines. This was fixed in TinyTERM version 4.65.5012.

Cannot Use This Version on OS X 10.5

Thursday, August 11th, 2011

TinyTERM ITX for Mac will occasionally fail to install on OS X version 10.5. This does not happen on all such systems. There is no workaround at present.

Extended Attribute Colors

Wednesday, August 3rd, 2011

TinyTERM ITX allows the user to set colors for foreground text, the background, the cursor and bold text. In contrast, TinyTERM for Windows allows the user to set sixteen foreground and background colors, covering all combinations of text attributes: normal, bold, reverse, blink and underline. However, it does not allow the user to change cursor color.

Century Software, Inc., has received a request to give TinyTERM ITX the same flexibility in color mapping as TinyTERM for Windows.
