Kermit is a computer file transfer and management protocol and a set of communications software tools primarily used in the early years of personal computing in the 1980s. It provides a consistent approach to file transfer, terminal emulation, script programming, and character set conversion across many different computer hardware and operating system platforms.
Mintty is based on the terminal emulation and Windows frontend parts of PuTTY, but improves on them in a number of ways, [3] particularly regarding xterm compatibility. It is written in C. The POSIX API provided by Cygwin is used to communicate with processes running within mintty, while its user interface is implemented using the Windows API.
A packet-switched network transmits data that is divided into units called packets.A packet comprises a header (which describes the packet) and a payload (the data). The Internet is a packet-switched network, and most of the protocols in this list are designed for its protocol stack, the IP protocol suite.
Preview builds of Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server (available from the Windows Insider program) feature a dark green background instead of a blue one. [26] [27] [24] Windows 3.1, 95, and 98 supports customizing the color of the screen [28] whereas the color is hard-coded in the Windows NT family. [28]
Curses is designed to facilitate GUI-like functionality on a text-only device, such as a PC running in console mode, a hardware ANSI terminal, a Telnet or SSH client, or similar. Curses-based software is software whose user interface is implemented through the curses library, or a compatible library (such as ncurses ).
WinSCP (Windows Secure Copy) [3] is a file manager, SSH File Transfer Protocol (SFTP), File Transfer Protocol (FTP), WebDAV, Amazon S3, and secure copy protocol (SCP) client for Microsoft Windows. The WinSCP project has released its source code on GitHub under an open source license, while the program itself is distributed as proprietary freeware.
The normal solution was to send NAK s to every subsequent packet if the user requested it. Since the XMODEM protocol defined a limit of ten NAK s to abort a send, and each packet might take a second to send, this meant there was a ten second delay where the sender continually sent data that was simply ignored.
An X display can show one or more user's xterm windows output at the same time. [2] [3] Each xterm window is a separate process, but all share the same keyboard, taking turns as each xterm process acquires focus.
