Overview
The FacetWin DT terminal emulator property sheet is a standard Windows
property sheet that provides a convenient and organized way to display and modify all
of the program settings in one place.
There are several ways to access the property sheet:
- Choose the File/Properties menu item while running the emulator.
- Press the Property sheet button on the emulator tool bar.
- In a Windows Explorer window, right-click on a FacetWin terminal emulator
configuration file which has the “.fwt” file name extension. A menu will be presented, and you should choose the “Properties” item in this menu.
When accessing the property sheet from the menu or with the tool bar button,
the program will, of course, be running, and the changes take place immediately.
The changes will be automatically saved in the configuration file.
Right-clicking on a configuration file while in an Explorer window, provides a
way to make changes to a configuration without actually running the terminal
emulator. This is an easy way to change connection parameters which cannot be
modified while the connection is made.
If you exit from the property sheet with the OK button, then the changes you
have made will be saved. If you exit with the Cancel button, no changes will be
made to the configuration.
In the following descriptions of each option, the default value is indicated.
However, you can personalize the defaults to your own preferences by
right-clicking on the “Add a serial or dial-up connection” configuration. See How to Modify the Default Values Used When Creating New Host/Server
Applications.
