What's
new about KoalaTerm 4.1 and
Secure KoalaTerm 4.1
The best VT terminal
emulator gets even better! At Foxit Software, we keep our
promise to bring the best to our valued customers. Upgrading
is always free!
1. New support to soft
character set! Soft character set is a feature of VT320/VT420
terminals and not found on any affordable emulation programs.
KoalaTerm now supports DECDLD command which allows host application
to send any customized font to KoalaTerm. With this new feature,
your application can display real graphic, special characters,
or just alternative fonts on KoalaTerm screen! If you have
such applications like word processing, system monitoring,
and other graphic applications, KoalaTerm 4.1 is the perfect
replacement for your VT terminals!
2. This change is quite
apparent: the larger buttons on the toolbar. With labels on
each of those buttons, you don't need to guess what those
buttons will do anymore!
3. The new "MACRO" button
on the toolbar: it's an exciting new feature added to KoalaTerm
4.1. Although previous KoalaTerm version has the most capable
scripting facilities among all terminal emulators, it often
takes some time for a terminal user to learn how to write
those scripts. Now with this all new macro recording feature,
you don't need to write a single line of script to make your
terminal session much more efficient and convenient! Just
press the "MACRO" button, do what you would normally do to
finish some task, press the "MACRO" button again, then all
your typings, be it normal characters, or functions keys,
will be automatically recorded as a KoalaTerm script, and
you can assign the script to a customized button or a mapped
key. Later on, if you want to repeat what you have done, just
press the assigned button or mapped key!
4. The "RECONN" button
on the toolbar: this button exists in previous KoalaTerm versions,
but it never worked. Now the reconnecting feature has been
added to KoalaTerm 4.1. If you choose not to close the window
after disconnected from the host, you will see this button
get enabled after you closed a session, and you can reconnect
to the host by just press the button, just one click! And
your login script, if set up, will also be re-executed!
