FlexTerm is a modern, fully featured, easy to use, Windows based terminal emulation software solution written in 100% pure C# .NET, providing a new user interface that is long overdue for the terminal emulation community and provides secure access to IBM Z (mainframe), Open Systems (Unix/Linux) and FTP host systems. Available are 23 workspace window themes, which control the colors and styles of the window elements, allowing the user to personalize the FlexTerm environment. FlexTerm Extensions is a powerful tool, which provides enhanced functionality and increased productivity for the user. Included are three system extensions for function keys, notes and print multiple screens on a single page, with the ability to create custom extensions with buttons for performing any FlexTerm action. Users have the advantage of connecting to multiple host systems from a single workspace with tabbed sessions, which can be docked to any side of the workspace window, or can be floating as separate windows. Customize the look and feel of the application with the use of color, edit, hotspots, keyboard, and mouse Schemes. The Quick Access Toolbar allows quick and easy access to commonly used functions. A robust scripting language allows users to record macros for automating routine tasks and Windows HLLAPI (High Level Language Application Program Interface) is fully supported. IND$FILE and secure FTP are both provided for transferring files between the host and local PC.
