There are so many small (and bigger) differences when using various systems that it pays off to have a program that allows you to tune into these differences. The background of this story is: In the beginning these were the first DOS PC’s and later some Windows based machines that needed to interface with (in my case) VAX VMS, and later with the other UNIXes.īut why use a terminal emulator on MAC, for crying out loud? I hear you think… OS X is a Unix, so it should be all native, right? I have been using a terminal emulator, basically ever since I got away from the VT100 terminal:Īnd a few other obscure applications that I cannot even recall anymore.Ĭurrently, and over the last 6 to 8 years, I have been using ZOC.
Dumb title for a blog post? No, not really I guess…
