MacWise users will find the Mac Mini a compelling reason to put that old Wyse or DEC terminal into storage and replace it with a Mac Mini running MacWise. The Mini has everything you need to connect to your host.

This release of MacWise fixes a VT100 / VT220 emulation problem. The screen could get scrambled by an incorrect ESC [ ascii code sent from the host. MacWise now absorbs the invalid code. Also fixes a rare Array Bounds Error message.

This release of MacWise adds a telnet option, "Use the tc shell to log in". When this option is enabled, MacWise first logs into the Mac unix tc shell before issuing telnet commands and opening the connection. This option provides more compatibility with host computers that request the terminal type. It could prevent error messages from the host such as "Connection refused by host" or "Invalid terminal type".

MacWise now has SCO ANSI emulation for Macintosh. All emulations now work with SCO ANSI. (Wyse, Viewpoint, VT100, VT220, Televideo). SCO ANSI colors, cursor positioning and a 25-line screen are supported.

MacWise font now works correctly in Tiger ( OS X 10.4 ). The symptom in previous versions of MacWise was that columns did not line up correctly. The other symptom was that the flashing cursor did not completely erase the cursor line when it flashed on and off.

Added option to keep TCP sessions alive for telnet and ssh. Look under the Special Menu for this option. It allows you to enter a time interval to tell the host that you are still there. This keeps the host from disconnecting you after a pre-determined idle time.

Fix - The MacWise Registration window would not open and you could not register the program.

Fix - If you closed the connection to the host, you could not open it again (when you selected Close Connection from the Connection Menu or Option - O from the keyboard). This problem was introduced in 10.7.63

Fix - Dragging the mouse to capture text on the screen would get an array bounds error if you dragged the mouse beyond the top of the MacWise window. More fixes...

We are pleased to announce that the price per user has been lowered to $65 per user for site licenses of 20 to 49 users.

By now you have, no doubt, heard that Macs will be running with Intel processors next year. The phase-in will start in 2006 and by 2007, all Macs will be running on Intel chips.

Feature - Added "Black Transparent Set" to Window Colors. This is a black background with transparency to let you see behind the MacWise window.

Fix - VT100 and VT220 emulation - graphics mode was not returning back to text mode
Feature - Added MNP5 data compression to the list of available modem init strings.

MacWise can now use Kermit to log into your host using telnet or secure shell. If your host sends files to your Mac using the Kermit file transfer protocol, MacWise will automatically receive the file and place it in the kermit_Transfers folder in your Documents folder.

Terminal Emulation for Macintosh

There have been several requests to create a MacWise iPhone app. Unfortunately, that would require a jail-broken iPhone and a year of programming time. But the next best thing is actually very cool and has advantages over a limited-function iPhone app. It uses Virtual Network Computing (VNC) to let you see and control your Mac screen from anywhere on your iPhone. It's just as if you were sitting in front of your Mac using MacWise via your iPhone.

PROBLEM: When you log into your host, it always skips past the Login prompt and displays the Password prompt. Then you must hit return to get the Login prompt.

SOLUTION: Use the -K telnet option.
The -K option specifies no automatic login to the remote system.

Many host computers are programmed to instruct the client app to save and restore screens.
MacWise 12.0 or later supports three sets of escape sequences commonly used by PC clients.

MacWise can now display pictures.
The pictures can reside on the Mac or a server.
Windows PC drives on the network are also supported for storing pictures.
Pictures can be placed anywhere on the screen under host control.
They can also be sized and scaled to specific dimensions or can retain their original aspect ratio. Accuterm escape sequences are supported for displaying pictures...

When PCL commands are included in the print job sent from the host to MacWise, the host can control printer features such as bold text, lines per inch, margins and much more. When this option is enabled in Printer Setup under the FIle Menu, the standard Mac Print dialog box is bypassed and the print job is sent directly to the Mac default printer...

If you select "Function Key Sets" from the Emulate Menu in MacWise, it will open a Finder window with several sets of keys.
There is a set called "VT220 Fkeys W/Do Key"
Double click on that to load the fkey set.

Work without distractions, using every inch of your display.
Since full-screen apps use every available pixel, they make working on smaller screens more practical than ever.
Say you like to work with MacWise in full-screen view. But you prefer to keep iCal in a desktop window. You can have it both ways. MacWise has a full-screen button in the top right of the window. Just click it and the app fills the screen. Click the button again to bring MacWise back to the desktop.

Older versions of the 3ivx video codec may cause MacWise to crash.

Virtual Network Computing apps have been on the iPad since day one. And I have recommended them for use with MacWise. But there is a new kid on the block that really improves the experience with MacWise...

MacWise Terminal Emulation for Macintosh. Version 15.0 has been released.

Compatible with Mac OSX 10.11 ( El Capitan ) and previous OS versions back to 10.6

MacWise version 15.2 includes fixes for an ActivateFontFromResources error which can cause problems loading fonts with El Capitan (Mac OS 10.11). You will want to upgrade to 15.2 if you are experiencing any of the following problems: cursor positioning and screen clearing problems; error message: "ActivateFontFromResourcesFile error -985" which means the MacWise font may not have loaded; strange characters on the screen where graphic drawing lines should be.

Dr. Alexander von Paleske ---- 26.10. 2024 Diese Woche machte die Antibiotika-Resistenz in deutschen Medien wieder Schlagzeilen. So titelte besispielsweise die Rhein Zeitung: Antibiotika Krise weitet sich aus, jährlich sterben in der EU 35.000 Menschen an Infektionen durch Antibiotika-resistente Bakterien. Was in dem Artikel vergessen wurde: Weltweit sind es 1,2 Millionen, wobei diese Zahl noch eine Untertreibung der wirklichen Zahl der an resisten Keimen Verstorbenen sein dürfte...
