Red Book for AIX Rel. 7.0 and 8.0

5. To enable or disable HPCL PRINTING, choose ON or OFF, respectively.

• If PRINTER is set to a valid LPT port and HPCL PRINTING is set to ON, using

the Shift-Print Screen key sequence causes Eterm to send line HPCL commands to

the printer to draw the screen.

• If PRINTER is set to a valid LPT port and HPCL PRINTING is set to OFF, using

the Shift-Print Screen key sequence causes Eterm to send line-drawing characters to

the printer to draw the screen. If your printer does not support the line-drawing

character set, you will get less than desirable results.

• If PRINTER is set to NONE, Eterm disables screen printing, regardless of the value

of HPCL PRINTING.

6. In the TERM ID field, type your system login name, unless the system administrator

instructs otherwise.

The system looks up this value in the Port column of the System > System Files >

Terminal Setup screen to determine Eclipse menus and slave printers. If an entry for your

system login name does not already exist in Terminal Setup, you must create one. For

information about setting up terminals, refer to the Eclipse Help.

7. To enable or disable HILITE, choose ON or OFF, respectively, to control whether

Eterm displays the currently active input field in reverse video.

8. Set ENABLE DEBUG to ON to allow the DEBUG option to appear on the main Eterm

menu. Selecting DEBUG from the main Eterm menu displays the debugging screen,

which Intuit Eclipse Support uses for diagnosing problems with Eterm.

9. Set ENABLE UD to ON to display a list of user-defined screens whenever you press the

Alt key. This feature is useful for new users becoming accustomed to new user-defined

screens. Afterwards, the user might want to disable this feature.

10. Choose CONTINUE to accept the changes and dismiss the dialog box.

Caution: On dumb terminals, the configuration information is stored on the boot

diskette. Whenever making changes to a diskette, always allow the diskette

drive (A) to come to a complete halt before removing the diskette. Failure

to this can result in corrupted files.

Eterm for DOS is now configured to run Eclipse on a TCP/IP network.
