The hardware keyboard should be mappable on OS X by putting a keyboard.dat file into ~/Library/Application Support/TinyTERM-ITX . But doing so does not actually change the keyboard behavior. A similar problem affects TinyTERM for Linux.

In TinyTERM for Mac and Linux, the list of connections cannot be re-ordered. As such, the connection list appears to be random.

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.

Century Software has received a request to add an option to TinyTERM ITX that will close the application when the session disconnects. This would happen automatically after logging out of most host systems.

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.

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.

Using TERM-to-TERM server mode transfer, download a file to your Linux PC. Nothing transfers. The same is true for uploading to TERM in server mode using term -1x or term -2x. Both manual and scripted file transfers fail. This works using TinyTERM connecting to Linux.

TERM for Linux does not communicate through the Digi PortServer at all. It connects to the tty port generated, but there’s no response after that. The remote system doesn’t see anything you type in TERM, and TERM doesn’t echo anything back from the host.
