Can’t Remap Print Screen or Pause Key

Friday, April 20th, 2007

TinyTERM 4.x does not allow you to remap the Print Screen or Pause key. This functionality was added in TinyTERM 4.30. It was lost again in TinyTERM 4.31.

CR 353, fixed in 4.30

Selecting Characters Is Difficult

Friday, April 20th, 2007

Selecting characters in the TinyTERM 4.x window is not quite the same as other Windows applications. For example, to select a single line of text, you must drag the mouse diagonally across the line from start to finish, rather than straight. This was changed in TinyTERM 4.30 to make it more like other applications.

Century Software, Inc., has also had a request to add double-click word selection. Double-clicking on a single letter would highlight the entire word, up to but not including any spaces on either end of the word. This has not been implemented thus far.

CR 348, improved highlighting
CR 760, double-click

Copy and Paste Shortcut Keys

Friday, April 20th, 2007

TinyTERM 4.x does not have the copy and paste functions mapped to keys by default. You can set this up through keyboard mapping.

In the keyboard mapper, click the Chart Open button. On the chart, click the F button in the upper right to get a list of functions. You can drag COPY and PASTE from that chart to any keys on the keyboard.

You can also do this through CScript commands. In the keyboard mapper, select the key you want to use for copying text. Change the Action to MACRO. In the Value line, enter:

te.copy();

For pasting copied text, the command is:

te.paste();

CSL Run Engine Error When TinyTERM Closes

Friday, April 20th, 2007

When TinyTERM closes automatically, some versions produce the error, “CSL Run Engine ActiveX DocObject Server has encountered a problem and needs to close.” The details for the error message show: Faulting application tt.exe, faulting module cente.ocx. This happens if Establish connection on open, Close session on disconnect and exit, and Login at connect are set in the Session Properties. Turning off Close session on disconnect and exit fixes the problem.

CR 327, fixed in TinyTERM 4.30

7-Bit Connections Fail

Friday, April 20th, 2007

TinyTERM 4.x gives garbage or no response over a 7-bit connection, particularly if even parity is set. This was fixed in TinyTERM 4.21.

Page Setup for TN3270 and TN5250

Friday, April 20th, 2007

Options set in TinyTERM Plus’ Printer Setup and Page Setup dialogs are ignored by TN3270 and TN5250 emulations. They always use the system defaults instead for print screens. This was fixed in TinyTERM 4.30.

CR 315

Auto Login Doesn’t Retry

Friday, April 20th, 2007

In TinyTERM’s Session Properties, the Login tab allows you to configure an automated login process. However, regardless of the settings in the Retry and Wait fields, the login is only attempted once. If it fails to receive any of the Wait for strings, it never starts over. This was fixed in TinyTERM 4.30.

CR 311

Fingerprint and Proxy Services

Friday, April 20th, 2007

Fingerprint for SSH connections was added in TinyTERM Plus 4.21. TinyTERM 4.21 also includes the addition of proxy services for connecting through firewalls.

IBM3151 Handles Bold Text Incorrectly

Thursday, April 19th, 2007

The IBM3151 emulation in TinyTERM 4.x does not always display bold text correctly. It also does not turn off correctly in all cases. This is fixed in TinyTERM 4.30.

CR 296

Blink Uses Default Colors

Thursday, April 19th, 2007

Whenever something on screen should blink, it does, but it always uses the default colors for the session. If the host changes the colors, that doesn’t come through. This was fixed in TinyTERM 4.21.
