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!
