Here are a couple of tips to help make using PTerm easier and more
productive for you!
o Its easy to get PTerm to keep a scrollable on screen capture
buffer. Run PTerm and using the System menu (ALT-SPACEBAR) choose
"Screen Size and Position". From there you can set the height of
the screen buffer to the number of lines you want saved. I have
mine set to 1024. Click on both "Save" boxes and then Ok. PTerm
will now have a vertical scroll bar which will allow you to scroll
through the last 1024 lines.
o Mouse cut and paste makes it easy to grab bits of information off
PTerm's window and paste it at the current cursor position. Again,
from the System menu choose "Settings". Click the "QuickEdit Mode"
and "Save Configuration" boxes, then Ok. Now, using the left mouse
button you can mark the bit of text you want to copy. Once marked,
click right mouse button to copy it. When you want to insert that
text just click the right mouse button anywhere over PTerm's
window. Note that this works with ALL console (command) windows!
o Don't forget you can choose any font available in the "Fonts"
dialog box (System menu, "Fonts") for PTerm to use.
