If you enables the back wrap, the cursor at the beginning of a line moves back to the end of previous line when a BS character is received. To enable the back wrap, edit the BackWrap line in the [Tera Term] section of the setup file like the following:
BackWrap=on
Default: BackWrap=off
Tera Term will sound the beep when the BEL character(ASCII $07) receives.
You can disable the beep sound for the BEL character by editing the Beep line in the [Tera Term] section of the setup file like the following:
Beep=off
Also, the terminal screen will flush instead of souding the beep in the following configuration.
Beep=visual
Default: Beep=on
If you choose the Terminal ID to be "VT2XX" or "VT3XX" in the [Setup] Terminal dialog box, characters in range of ASCII $80-$9F are interpreted as the C1 control characters.
You can disable this interpretation and make these characters visible on the screen (if you are using a font which supports these characters), by editing the Accept8BitCtrl line in the [Tera Term] section of the setup file like the following:
Accept8BitCtrl=off
Default: Accept8BitCtrl=on
When sending C1 control characters, Tera Term uses equivalent 7-bit sequences.
To send C1 control characters as single 8-bit characters, edit the Send8BitCtrl line in the [Tera Term] section of the setup file like the following:
Send8BitCtrl=on
Note: This setting is used only as default setting. Host can change this setting by S7C1T / S8C1T / DECSCL control sequence.
Default: Send8BitCtrl=off
To display all received characters (including control characters) on the screen, edit the Debug line in the [Tera Term] section of the setup file like the following:
Debug=on
If you press Shift+Esc, Tera Term enters the debug mode, in which all received characters are displayed on the screen. If you press Shift+Esc again in the debug mode, Tera Term returns to the normal mode.
In the debug mode, received characters are displayed by the following way:
ASCII code of the character Displaying form $00 - $1F ^@ - ^_ $20 - $7E normal character $7F <DEL> $80 - $FF MSB of the ASCII code is turned to be 0 and displayed by the same way as one for $00-$7F characters, except that text is displayed in the reversed color.
Default: Debug=off
To disable the status line functions of VT terminal, edit the EnableStatusLine line in the [Tera Term] section of the setup file like the following:
EnableStatusLine=off
Then, escape sequences for the status line functions are ignored.
Default: EnableStatusLine=on
In TEK GIN mode, the cross hair cursor appears in the TEK window. When you press a key or click the left mouse button, the key code (ASCII code) is sent with the the coordinate of the cursor.
You can change the key code for the left mouse button by editing the TEKGINMouseCode line in the [Tera Term] section of the setup file like the following:
TEKGINMouseCode=<key code>
Default: TEKGINMouseCode=32 (ASCII code 32 corresponds to the space character.)
If you set 'on', the behavior of tab at end-of-line is the same as VT/PuTTY/xterm. The tab doesn't cause automatic linefeed.
If you set 'off', the behavior of tab at end-of-line is the same as FreeBSD console(syscons). The tab causes automatic linefeed. (it is not compatible with VT)
VTCompatTab=on
Default: VTCompatTab=off
<ESC>[J (Erase Below) escape sequence equals <ESC>[2J (Erase All) when the current cursor is top left (0, 0).
A user can configure whether the current buffer scrolls down when the screen is clear.
If this configuration value is on, the current buffer will scroll down as well as <ESC>[2J escape sequenc.
If this configuration value is off, the current buffer will not scroll down. Instead, some buffers from the cursor position to the end of the screen.
Default: ScrollWindowClearScreen=on
When the received KANJI code is UTF-8 or UTF-8m, a user can configure the behavior of the Unicode characters which Tera Term does not support as the pure Unicode.
If this configuration value is on, the unsupported Unicode character is displayed as "??".
If this configuration value is off, the unsupported Unicode character is displayed as "?".
Default: UnknownUnicodeCharacterAsWide=off
Tera Term in Japanese mode will display a ruled line and some symbols as 2-cloumns wide. However, some host applications may assume these characters will be displayed as 1-column wide character which results in incorrect display image.
In addition, a ruler may be displayed by using +-| and some unsupproted characters may be displayed as ?? in English mode.
Tera Term can be configured to display these charcaters by similar code of DEC sepcial characters (if any exists) to minimize the incorrect display iamge.
However this feature causes a side effect that characters selected by mouse will be copied as different characters in a clipboard.
This configuration takes effect only when received Kanji code are either UTF-8 or UTF-8.
Some mapping characters are categorized into several groups and you can specify each group to be converted or not.
If a user configures this option, please specify the sum value of the converting character at UnicodeToDecSpMapping entry.
Type A: Rule marks Value: 1 Box drawings (U+2500-U+257F)
Type B: The character that is displayd "??" up to version 4.58 (it includes undisplayed characters in English environment). Value: 2 Bullet (U+2022) Hyphenation point (U+2027) Light shade (25%) (U+2591) Medium shade (50%) (U+2592) Dark shade (75%) (U+2593) Black small square (U+25AA) Black vertical rectangle (U+25AE) Black verty small square (U+2B1D)
Type C: The character that is displayd as bullet(wide character) in Japanese environment, and is displayed as Middle dot in English environment.
NOTICE: A user is recommended to not specifying this option unless in Japanese environment. Value: 4 Middle dot (U+00B7) One dot leader (U+2024) Bullet operator (U+2219)
Default: # Type A and B UnicodeToDecSpMapping=3
A use can change the default action of the function key and the editor keypad from Tera Term 4.62. When a user can use this feature, the key sequence like as the VT termianl sends to the server without the keyboard configuration file.
If a user disables the function key action in the keyboard configuration file and sends nothing to the server, please change the StrictKeyMapping entry in teraterm.ini file in the following:
StrictKeyMapping=on
The default value: StrictKeyMapping=off
To send MSB(Most Significant Bit) set character by using the Alt key, a user should modify Meta8Bit line of [Tera Term] section in a configuration file as follows
Meta8Bit=raw
To send MSB(Most Significant Bit) set character by using the Alt key with a conversion to transmission character code (e.g. UTF-8), a user should modify Meta8Bit line of [Tera Term] section in a configuration file as follows
Meta8Bit=text
Also, the user should enable the Meta Key setting.
default: Meta8Bit=off
