Cursor -- To select either Visible Cursor or Invisible Cursor for the display.

Cursor Style -- To select either Block cursor or Underline cursor for the display. The figures below show the difference.


Cursor Blink -- To select either steady cursor or blink cursor for the display.

Display font -- To select the font type and size for the display. Koalaterm ONLY supports fixed-width fonts. Foxit Software company provides the registered users with 5 more fixed-width TrueType fonts for FREE. Registered users, please email to fonts@foxitsoftware.com.

Font for 132 Columns -- You can specify a different font for 132 columns so KoalaTerm will automatically switch fonts for you when terminal width changed. Defaultly KoalaTerm uses the same font for both 80 columns or 132 columns. You should uncheck the "Same as 80 Cols" check box if you want to make your 132 columns font effective. Most likely you may want to use a smaller font size for 132 columns mode.


Line Drawing -- Some host application uses "line drawing" feature to draw lines on the terminal screen, they are actually specially shaped characters put together. Some of the fonts you chose for display, may not have those line-shaped characters, then you can use "Draw Lines" option instead of "Use Display Font" to display those lines.

Enable Blink Text -- When checked all data or character from host will be shown on your screen with blink attribute.

Display Status Line -- When checked, the Status Line will automatically show on the bottom of the session window while negotiating with some hosts.
