Connect to any system using VT102 emulation. On TCP/IP connections it reports as “linux” emulation. And it doesn’t properly handle line draw characters. The Use non font-based line draw option doesn’t help. The workaround is to use VT100 emulation, which has the same capabilities.

Set up a Citrix connection, either in the Citrix ICA Client or the PIXIL Login Manager. You can select the Launch configuration on startup option, but it doesn’t work. It fails even if the Citrix session is the only session listed.

The basic sequence to set scrolling margins in most VT emulations in TinyTERM — VT220, VT320 and VT420 — is:
CSI Pt ; Pb r
which you can find documented here. If that sequence is sent as part of a large block of screen information, the VT420 emulation can miss it. This leads to incorrect scrolling and bad display.

Currently port forwarding in TinyTERM Plus does local-to-remote and remote-to-local forwarding. Century Software, Inc., has had a request to use TinyTERM Plus as a sort of “go-between” from the SSH server to another system, encrypting on the way. This would requires a third, indirect port forwarding option be added to TinyTERM Plus.

The CScript command KeyLoad() doesn’t generate any debug errors when it runs. However, it doesn’t make any changes. Loading a new scheme with KeyLoad() doesn’t change the key mappings.

Configure TinyTERM Plus for TN5250 or TN3270 emulation, then save the settings and exit. On your keyboard, turn NumLock on. When you start TinyTERM Plus, Num Lock shuts off. It also happens occasionally just by selecting either emulation.

SecureFT requires you to enter a username and password for each connection. Leaving them blank produces the error, “Error occurred on connected event with message: Last command line completely unrecognized.”
Century Software, Inc., has had a request to add a login prompt to SecureFT. This would allow the connection to be set up with no username or password. On connect, it would prompt the user to enter them before continuing.
