ZTERM
The Configuration sheet contains a tab labelled "Startup". On this tab you can enter a series of commands to be sent to the host after the connection is made. You can use this field to automatically log you on to the host system.
Data entered here is limited to 1024 bytes and is saved in the registry in a scrambled format to protect any passwords you might enter. Data can be plain text or one of the following special sequences:
^character |
Sends the control character specified (i.e. ^[ for escape) |
^nnn |
|
:<message> |
Prompts the user with the prompt message and replaces entire tag with user input |
*<message> |
As above but user enters data into a password field |
For example:
am62c 200k
system service
*<Enter your password>
vue :<Enter INI file to edit>.ini
^[help
If your startup commands get "lost", try increasing the Delay between commands field. This slows down each line sent to the host by the specified delay. Also, if you're using a Unix host, you might want to try checking Wait for something before sending. Quite often, Unix machines will not accept any input until the login: prompt appears. By checking this option, ZTERM 2000 delays sending startup commands until at least a single character has been recevied from the host.
