You should create a profile for each session that connects to a different
host or requires different session options. To create and save a profile:
1
Open a new session using the New Session Command in the File menu or by
clicking the New Session button in the toolbar. In the Open New Session
dialog box enter the IP address or host name you wish to associate with
the new profile, then click on the Config button.
2
Customize the session to your preferences. For example, size the IntelliTerm
window and select the options you want from any category available for
the terminal type you have selected.
3
To save a new profile, select the Save button. A dialog box appears.
4
To save the window position and font selection, check the Save Window Layout
in Profile button. Type a profile name that is descriptive of the job you
do when you access the system such as invoices. If you wish to create a
shortcut that will automatically make a connection to the system, check
create shortcut for Profile. If you need to call this profile from a EHLLAPI,
HLLAPI or WinHLLAPI application you need to assign a HLLAPI Short Name
to this profile. When you have made all the appropriate selections click
the Save button.
5
You are now ready to make any other modification you wish this profile
to have such as keyboard remapping and choice of fonts. When all the changes
are complete, select Save Session Profile from the Options menu to add
the new changes to your profile. Make sure that the profile name is currently
displayed in the text box before clicking Save.
Creating Program Icons
You can have Distinct IntelliTerm automatically create a program icon for
a given profile, with all the appropriate options. This icon allows you
to directly connect to the host with the specified profile.
To create a program icon, enter a profile name in Profile text box in the
Save Profile dialog box. Click the Create Shortcut for Profile checkbox
then click Save. This will immediately save the profile and display the
following dialog box.
Deleting a Profile
You can delete existing profiles from the Save Profile dialog box. To delete
an existing profile, select Save Session Profile from the Options menu
and select the profile with the mouse. The profile name will be copied
to the edit box. Then select the Delete button to delete the profile.
