The Send File dialog in TinyTERM does not store a list of files transferred. However, when you save a session after sending a file, TinyTERM does save that filename in the Send File dialog.

In contrast, the Get File dialog does save a list of files downloaded, under Source file to get. As with Send File, you must save the session after the transfer to save that data.

Century Software, Inc., has had a request for a drop-down list of files sent, similar to the one for files downloaded. That has not been implemented thus far.

When running TERM as a background process with the -q command-line option for quiet mode, the Linux log fills with “EOF error on console” messages. This does not happen consistently across releases of TERM or distros of Linux.

TERM for UnixWare does not properly enable or disable tty ports on OpenUnix 8. The devices apparently aren’t listed in the /etc/inittab where TERM expects to find them.

Open two sessions in TinyTERM. In the first, open a text file in vi and copy several lines of data to the clipboard.

In the second session, open vi and type i for insert mode. From TinyTERM’s Edit menu, select Paste. Extraneous characters are added to the data.

This does not happen with every file tested. However, it has been reproduced consistently with some source files. The terminal emulation type does not matter.

In TinyTERM go to the Tools menu and select Edit Text File. A file select dialog pops up that shows all the files and folders in the TinyTERM directory.

If you have Internet Explorer 6 or higher on the PC, the same file select dialog comes up. However, only folders show up in the list, no files. If you enter *.* in the File name field and hit Enter, the list of files displays.

Century Software, Inc., has had a request to incorporate a graphical FTP client into the TinyTERM emulator. This would be similar to Century FTP Plus or SecureFT. That has not been implemented thus far.

CR 48

Open a large text file in vi through TinyTERM, large enough to fill several printed pages. Hold down the down arrow or j key so that the file scrolls continuously. Sooner or later it will pause, then if you don’t let up on the key, it will jump-scroll several lines. The same thing happens moving up through the file. This is related to the way TinyTERM buffers screen display information.

TERM for Linux 6.27 and later versions include an RPM install file. TERM 6.2.5b for Linux did not.

The RPM install does not work on every version of Linux. For those that don’t accept such files, Century Software, Inc., has created kernel-specific installs.

TERM for Sun Solaris includes two cd commands in the install script, in the middle of the following if statement:

if [ $OSmajor = 5 ]
then
LASTMOD="28 Apr 95"
BIN_FILES="$BRANDIT"
cd Solaris
else
cd SunOS
fi

On the CD distribution of TERM for UNIX, neither “Solaris” nor “SunOS” exists during the install process. This makes the install script fail with the listed error. The workaround is to install TERM manually.

This was reported only in TinyTERM 4.21 using Optum 9000 Blackboard, a debit-card reader and accounting package. Reports that should have displayed in 132 columns wrapped at 80 columns instead. According to the application documentation, any VT-series emulation should work.
