Transparent Print Goes to Second Printer
May 3rd, 2007

In TinyTERM 4.50, any emulation that uses \033[5i and \033[4i for transparent printing sends the job to Printer 2 under Extra Printers. If that printer has not been configured, the print job vanishes.

Transparent printing directly to the second printer works properly. Print screen uses the primary printer normally.

CR 807, fixed in TinyTERM 4.52

Can’t Upload Zip Files from Windows XP
May 3rd, 2007

Using Windows XP, SecureFT reads zip files as directories. Uploading a zip file causes a new directory to be created on the host, and the individual files in the zip are uploaded into that directory. This is directly related to XP’s ability to show the contents of a zip as a virtual directory.

CR 806, fixed in TinyTERM Plus 4.53

DH_GEX SHA256 Support
May 3rd, 2007

If you look at the top of the file, during the TCP_SEND in an SSH connection TinyTERM Plus sends over the DH_GEX with SHA1. This excludes DH_GEX SHA256, a replacement standard for the SHA1 variant.

Newer versions of SSH require this by default. Keys generated with this requirement won’t import correctly into TinyTERM. They can’t be verified.

Direct USB Connection
May 3rd, 2007

Century Software, Inc., has had a request for direct USB connectivity in TinyTERM. This would not be through a USB-to-serial adapter or anything similar. This would be a direct USB port connection between TinyTERM and the host system.

Font Size for Transparent Printing
May 3rd, 2007

Century Software, Inc., has had a request for an option to set the font size when transparent printing. Setting the Lines and Columns in Page Setup allows this in a roundabout way, but there is no way to set the font size directly.

Keyboard Editor Colors
May 3rd, 2007

Change the default dialog color in Windows. In TinyTERM, open the Session Properties and go to the Keyboard tab. Click the Edit button to bring up the keyboard map. Most of the keys shift to match the new dialog color. However, the background stays gray, as do the Ctrl, Shift and Alt keys.

Drag-and-drop Copy/Paste
May 3rd, 2007

Century Software, Inc., has had a request to make drag-and-drop copying and pasting of text possible in TinyTERM. This would allow you to select a text block with the mouse, then grab it and drag it to another application, or to the current cursor location in TinyTERM.

Incorrect DDE_Enable(); Documentation
May 3rd, 2007

The DDE_Enable() documentation states that the command takes a Boolean argument. If you give it one, you get a “too many arguments” error.

DDE_Enable() actually takes no arguments at all. This means that once enabled in TinyTERM 4.x, DDE cannot be disabled.

CR 796, documented in TinyTERM 4.7.1

64-bit Windows Compatibility
May 3rd, 2007

TinyTERM is a 32-bit application. However, it will install properly on 64-bit versions of Windows. You do not need to do anything special to install TinyTERM in these environments.

To run TinyTERM on a 64-bit Windows system, 32-bit compatibility must be installed in the OS. This is automatic in Windows 7 and later versions. No changes need to be made for TinyTERM to work properly in those environments.

For 64-bit versions of Windows XP or Vista, after installing TinyTERM test it for functionality. If there are any errors, close TinyTERM. Right-click on the TinyTERM shortcut and select Properties from the popup menu. Go to the Compatibility tab. On that tab, select a 32-bit compatibility mode. The “Windows XP service pack 2” option generally works well. TinyTERM will run normally with that option.

Century Software, Inc., has had a request to compile TinyTERM as a 64-bit application for that environment. To date this has not been done.
