5. Installation
1) Copy all files included in the distribution package to an empty directory
of your choice.
2) Install TERATERM.EXE in Program Manager with its icon.
If you want to connect to a host by telnet, the host name can be specified
as a command line parameter (see CMNDLINE.TXT). If you want to connect to a
host by a serial port, command line parameters can be omitted.
Specify "Working directory" as the directory in which TERATERM.EXE
exists.
3) To use the DEC special font, install the font TSPECIAL.TTF in Windows
by using Control Panel. When you uninstall or upgrade Tera Term later,
unistall the font using Control Panel. This font is used automatically
by Tera Term. You can not select it in the [Setup] font dialog box.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Usage
If you have a previous version of Tera Term, note that this version of
Tera Term and the previous one can not run simultaneously. Close all old
Tera Term sessions before running the new Tera Term session.
Re-using old setup files with this version of Tera Term is not recommended.
The first time you run Tera Term, the General Setup dialog box appears.
Choose the port type ("TCP/IP" or "Serial") you mainly use, and the language
type "English". Click the Ok button, then the Tera Term window appears.
If you choose the port type as "TCP/IP", the New connection dialog box
(to enter the host name to be connected) is displayed after the Tera Term
window appears. If you want to change the setup before the first connection
is started, click the Cancel button here.
You can view the help file for usage, by using the [Help] Index command.
See KEYCODE.TXT for a description of the keyboard setup.
See TTMACRO.TXT for a description of scripts.
