Just won't TU - it has a reasonable ftp up/download client interface, kermit client AND kermit server, also x/y/zmodem, ascii (stream) screen dump, print screen to editor. There is some scripting ability available but I haven't looked into how far it goes regarding automating transfers.

Thank you, everyone, for the help on this - as always, the people in this group are a tremendous resource! I will work with the client and let you know how things go! Susan Lynch F. W.

RE: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus
I use Dynamic Connect in preference to SBClient. I have NO issues with it using it against SB+/UV in VT220 mode. It is less powerful than say, b Nettermb (another well-loved emulator I have used) but it is free and quite serviceable for the price! As others have mentioned, it wonbt do SB+ downloads, smart client, tu.xxx routines and their ilk but it does have some SB+ smarts for printing boxes and the like. Setup: In SB+ in the terminal definition screen (/TERM.DEFN), start by creating a new emulation by copying one of the Wintegrate emulations supplied with SB+. Make sure the OE Term type is vt220 and PC Terminal type is set to 2 (aka Termite mode). This will give you a good colour emulation right off the bat. In the Setup /Terminal dialog of DC make sure that you have the sb and sb_keys extensions highlighted. Cheers.

RE: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus
I have no experience with Dynamic Connect, but I have setup a variety of terminal emulators to work with SB+. The first thing is to configure the page 1 stuff properly, terminal type, width, and depth first. Then the next big thing is to figure out what F3 is sending and get that key mapped. Once that key has been mapped it can be used to map the rest of the keys. Then double back and worry about the graphic characters, text effexts, color, and any other periphery that may need to be addressed. Granted, this is an overly simplified approach and there are always derivatives and issues to work around, but this is the general procedure that has worked best for me personally. -Kevin [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.PrecisOnline.com -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Susan Lynch Sent: Thursday, May 18, 2006 11:09 AM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus Folks, OK, before anyone asks if I am insane, my first response to the client was in the negative because SB Plus and SBClient are a team - even having different versions can cause odd behaviors, especially in things like downloads and email.

RE: [U2] Client interested in using Dynamic Connect with application software written with SBPlus
SB+ and SBClient are a team if you are in GUI mode. In character mode, almost any terminal program will do. SBClient is awfully pricey at $200 per seat when you can use AccuTerm or Anzio or any of a number of others. === Norman Morgan <> [EMAIL PROTECTED] <> http://www.brake.com === If you knew what Mona Lisa knew, you'd smile too. === > -Original Message- > > OK, before anyone asks if I am insane, my first response to > the client was in the negative because SB Plus and SBClient > are a team - even having different versions can cause odd > behaviors, especially in things like downloads and email. > But the client is both persistent (Dynamic Connect is, after all, > free!) and not good at giving details, and she wants a > recommendation on terminal emulation because she is having > trouble with determining a good setting.
