PuTTY (http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/) works well for me. It's free and comes with SSH support. Using vt100f for TERM_INGRES, the numeric key pad maps to the Ingres function keys with the top row doing PF1-PF4. I have not seen any FRS stuff in colour, without something like CACI's Upfront, although I guess you could mess with the termcap we supply to achieve that effect.

Subject: [Info-ingres] Ingres + Terminal Emulation, What's best??

Hi, **I thought I'd start a new thread to ask these questions.

I use a PC to access our Solaris box which has Ingres installed.

What's the best terminal emulation software to use?**** Is there any decent free software?

What are the best TERM_INFO settings to sensibly map the PC's keyboard into something usable in the ingres character based visual tools?

I'm sure I've seen ISQL in colour when I was on a course at CA a few years back,* how was this achieved?

Your opinions please!

Cheers,

Michael
