Hi guys; I use PuTTY because I could adapt it to T24. It lacks key mapping but I managed to amend the source code to have these famous 7 functional keys working. I can even scroll T24 application record screen up and down using Shift-mouse wheel :) whoever did it the regular way would understand :))
Besides that, I did many other things with the course of time (despite my absolute stupidity in C programming). So now I save a lot of typing using it for many environments. Everything I need is in the command line now (including the window size and position, colour scheme, window title, auto-CAPS, you name it).
