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.

TinyTERM ITX products for iOS support both telnet and SSH connections. However, only SSH2 is currently supported. Century Software has had a request to add SSH1 support.

The Honeywell Captuvo is a scanner enclosure for 4th-generation iPods. Century Software has had a request to add support for this device to TinyTERM Pro for iPhone.

In TinyTERM ITX 3270 for iPad version 2.0.1, the ATTN key does nothing when tapped.

CR 1057

In TinyTERM ITX 2 and TinyTERM Pro for iOS, as well as TinyTERM ITX 3270 for iPad, double-tapping the Shift key in the included keyboard layouts sets shift lock. But if you switch to another layout or hide the keyboard, that shift lock is lost.

The workaround is to create a new keyboard layout that has a shift-locked layout for quick access. But Century Software has had a request to restore the lock status instead.

Using any TinyTERM product for iOS, start a long display command. It doesn’t matter whether you’re using cat to display a long file, ls -R for a recursive directory listing, or any other command. Anything that produces several hundred lines of text will do. That text will take several seconds to start displaying.

When a script is run in TinyTERM for Windows, it’s compiled first. That compiled file has a maximum size of 98303 bytes (one less than hex value 18000). This limits the size of uncompiled script files as well, depending on the commands used. The limit needs to be removed.

For script files too large to compile, the workaround is to split it into multiple .cs files, then create an overarching script that uses the CompileFile() command to execute the smaller scripts in order.

TinyTERM for Windows includes an option to bypass the printer drivers. Century Software, Inc., has had a request to add the same capability to TinyTERM for Mac.

When used in TN3270 emulation, the te.GetSelection() script command returns an empty string.

CR 1051

In reverse text mode, non-font-based line draw characters are not drawn. This happens across the board in all TinyTERM product lines.

On Windows with the “Use non font-based line draw characters” option turned off, the characters draw correctly. That option is not available on other platforms.
