Common Terminal Emulators used in the MV market
- AccuTerm - now owned by Zumasys; originally developed by AccuSoft Enterprises http://asent.com/ (Pete Schellenbach, owner)
- Anzio - Rasmussen Software http://anzio.com/products/anziowin.htm (Bob Rasmussen, owner)
- MVTerm - For mvBase only http://www.rainingdata.com/products/dbms/mvb/index.html – broken link, now belongs to Rocket Software
- Why the heck is this listed as a WINE app? (Answer: All Windows apps can potentially be run under WINE in order to use them on Linux, and that includes MV terminal emulators, although some Windows apps work better than others, since WINE is an imperfect emulation of the Windows APIs, and WINE AppDB records how well various Windows apps work on Wine)
- Training? http://www.mvbase.com/
- SBTerm - Comes with SB+ (SystemBuilder) U2-only http://www-01.ibm.com/software/data/u2/sb/
- ViaDuct FX - Via Systems http://www.viasystemsinc.com/external/Viaduct.htm
- Winnix - http://winnix.com (Only one (?) that runs as GUI on PDA with Windows Mobile/CE)
- Wintegrate - http://www-01.ibm.com/software/data/u2/wintegrate/
Almost never referenced anymore:
- Carnation for Mac - http://www.carnationsoftware.com/
- HostAccess - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rogue_Wave_(company) (Originally known as TERMiTE, its original developer was Pixel Innovations, which in 2001 was bought by Quovadx, and Quovadx later became Rogue Wave.)
Work just fine, but without MV specific features, and usually just vt100 support
- Putty - http://google.com/search?q=putty. Free and works great! Enhanced versions that offer tab support and other niceties such as KiTTY, SuperPuTTY or PuTTYtray.
- Powerterm - http://www.ericom.com/clientbased.asp. Nice scripting language.
- MobaXterm - https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/ Really nice emulator, using Putty under the covers, but also supporting tabs, X-clients, RDP sessions, scripting and saved passwords.
If you are still using telnet as a protocol for these emulators, it's time to join the 21st Century and make the jump to Secure Shell
