TinyTERM ITX 3270 for iPad has a completely customizable keyboard, with several
included layouts. In addition, the keyboard can be made transparent, or hidden
entirely for a full-screen view of the emulation.
Here are a few examples. Click on any image for a full-size view.
| With the full keyboard displayed, the screen can be
scrolled with a single finger swipe. (This particular keyboard is based on
an IBM 3278 hardware terminal.) |
A touch of the keyboard button in the title bar turns the keyboard
transparent, causing the emulator to fill the full screen beneath the keys.
The amount of transparency is fully user-controllable, from completely
solid to invisible. (This keyboard layout is more like that of a desktop
PC.) |
|
|
|
| Another touch of the keyboard button, and
the keyboard is hidden completely, displaying the full terminal screen. |
In addition to the standard alphanumeric
keys, TinyTERM includes all PF and special keys. Access this by tapping the
Fn key on the main keyboard. Tap ABC to return. |
|
|
|
| For those who prefer the default iPad
keyboard, TinyTERM adds a secondary keyboard with PF and other function keys.
And like the other custom keyboards, these layouts are also fully programmable. |
With the custom keyboard
layouts, more screen space is available for the emulation itself. |
And with the keyboard
hidden, the emulation stretches to fit the full screen. |
|
|
|
|
| In landscape mode,
pinch-zoom can shrink the emulation screen to the available windows space
as shown here, or expand to display a detailed portion of the screen. |
Customizability isn't limited to the
keyboard. Connection details, emulation mode, automated login, colors and
more can be tailored to fit each individual connection. |
