Mouse Support over Telnet

In order to be able to have mouse support across telnet, you must be using both Pragma TelnetServer for NT and our Console Telnet Client. Mouse support is not available with Pragma InterAccess for Windows95/98 at this time. To get mouse support across telnet, the TERM variable must be set to WindowsTerm. This can be done in one of two ways:

 1. To set WindowsTerm on a temporary basis, at the command prompt, type:

 SET TERM=WindowsTerm

 This will only be in affect in the same console the command was typed in.

 2. To set WindowsTerm on a permanent basis

 In NT/2000/XP/.NET:

Open the Environment variables dialog and create the environment variable with “variable” TERM and “value” WindowsTerm, either on a per user (user variable) or system-wide (system variable) basis. Check operating system documentation on the location of the Environment variables dialog.

In Windows95/98:

Add the line TERM=WindowsTerm to the autoexec.bat file, then reboot the system.

 

Full Keyboard Support

Full keyboard and international keyboard support is available when using the WindowsTerm emulation. Using WindowsTerm, the key event is sent through the telnet session. The key event contains full information on a key press, including the control state.
