Note by PJF: This file is a change history, and should be used in conjunction
with the the original UniTerm documentation, which is currently under revision.
Please take the time to personally thank the author:
Simon Poole <K538915@CZHRZU1A.BITNET> for providing this really fantastic
terminal emulator as freeware. When you give it way in turn, try to
remember to at least mention his name. Simon's notes follow:
ReadMe for UniTerm V2.0 030 <-| (Beta test.) Public version described below.
---------------------------- |
|This number is displayed on the
'About UniTerm...' dialog box and
indicates the "Edit Number"
This release of UniTerm is NOT for redistribution, please show it
around, test it etc., but DON'T give it away! (Oh yes...this version
DOES HAVE a lot of trouble with color, it is in the process of being
fixed (ever tried to debug 32k of assembler code without being able to try
it out!)).
Changes 1.8a to 2.0
--------------------
General:
- FASTER!
text attributes in 80 col mode 7 to 10 times faster,
zoom 30% faster,
replay now reads the whole file in to memory at once
(if possible)
- Popup menu bound to right mouse button.
- A lot of bug fixes.
- Slightly larger, sorry for this........
- Custom cursor and text output routines, cursor in 132 col mode
and underline cursor
- Telephone dialer
- DCM (Display Control Mode)
- Mouse cursor control should be a lot better
Macro processor:
- Ten lines of the current macro are buffered.
- The following commands are no longer unique in the first
character:
%RUN
%DROPDTR
%ASSERTDTR
%PATH
%LOADSETUP
- New commands:
%REASSIGN(altkey,command) Assigns integer value command to the
altenate key value altkey.
%POPUP(entry,command,name) Redefines an entry in the popup menu:
entry : 1..20
command : see list
name : string that will be displayed
%UNICOMMAND(command) Execute one of UniTerm's internal
commands, see list.
%DIAL(num) Dial number num.
%LOADTEL(filename) Load a dialer setup file.
%ABORT(msg) Abort current macro file and load
$TEMP with msg.
- Changes:
%MACRO now executes the rest of the line depending on the
return status, if a macro execution is aborted, the rest
of the current line isn't executed.
%GET can be interrupted by pressing <Control><C>
- Bug fixes:
%RUN now uses the commandline parameter correctly,
jumping to a non-existant line number shouldn't
cause a crash anymore (thanks Marion!).
%KERMIT didn't work with the 'SEND' parameter.
%XMODEM crashed with a big bang when trying to receive,
this was a bad case of 'somebody nust have already reported this
bug'

Dialer:
- setup file 'UNITERM.TEL' is loaded at startup, if it isn't
found the values for the dialer are reset.
- Keys <Alt><1> to <Alt><0> dial numbers 1 to 10
- <Alt><H> hangs the phone up
- a '+' as first character of the number is a placeholder
for the access code.
- dialing can be aborted by pressing <Control><C>, the timeout
is 40 seconds.
- the suffix, prefix and hangup strings are passed to the
macro interpreter in "function-key" mode (The prefix is no
longer sent after the hangup string).
Zoommode:
- 30% faster
- keys changed: <Return> return to top level
<Undo> exit
arrow keys now move 1/3 of a screen
Terminal emulation:
Text mode:
- ESC[?40h set meta mode
ESC[?40l reset meta mode
- meta mode: in meta mode <Alternate> is used as a meta key,
all <Alternate> special functions on the main
keyboard are disabled, <Alt> + a function key
still works.
<Alt><CapsLock> toggles meta mode.
- ESC[*c inquire UniTerm version and mode
Report:
ESC[*major;minor;release;max-row;max-colc
if you issue ESC[*c with this version of UniTerm and are in
80x24 mode you get as response:
ESC[*2;0;0;24;80c
- new DCS string passed to UniTerm macro processor:
ESCPu.....ESC\
ESCPu%KERMIT('SEND',FALSE,'*.*')ESC\ would enable a remote
computer to start UniTerm Kermit.
- Delete and Backspace an be interchanged
- a number of bugs fixed
Tek mode:
- Cursor in Tek mode
- Tek Alpha mode is able to do selective erase now.
- Only codes between decimal 32 and 126 are displayed in alpha
mode
- CAN didn't switch properly back to text mode, fixed!
- GIN Cursor now behaves more like it does on other terminals
(again).
- Blockfill and rectangle draw modes are no longer terminated
by ASCII CR.
Help menu:
- single character commands:
T : Tab dialog
1 : Terminal settings 1
2 : Terminal settings 2
C : Dialer Configure
Popup menu:
- the 10 right hand fields are bound to the 10 current telephone
numbers
Kermit:
- decoding of Attribute packets sometimes caused a crash,
has been fixed.

ReadMe for UniTerm V2.0a 003 <-|
---------------------------- |
|This number is displayed on the
'About UniTerm...' dialog box and
indicates the "Edit Number"
Changes 2.0 to 2.0a
--------------------
General:
At last colour works again. The colour registers are saved and
restored, so there shouldn't be any mixing up of your normal
color settings anymore (this is important, since in some future
version of UniTerm more fancy things may be done :-)).
The key <Alternate> + one of the keys used for german umlauts
are not specialy handeld anymore, this means you MUST use
KEYEDIT.PRG to get all ASCII characters on a german keyboard.
V2.0a 003
Fixed bug that caused tab settings to be mixed up if UniTerm
loaded a setup file.
------------------------------------------------------------------ 5
EOI ENCOUNTERED.
