SimpTerm

SimpTerm is a lightweight Telnet client that comes with Kanji display support for Chinese characters and downloading options. It can be run on all Windows platforms out there.

You can take advantage of the utility’s portability status and run it on your system by simply opening the executable file. You can store it on USB flash drives.

The program does not impress much in the visual department, as its layout looks outdated. However, if you are a fan of the Windows 95 looks, the GUI may be the perfect environment for carrying out Telnet sessions.

There’s no support for a help manual, only a ‘Readme’ plain text file that includes succinct descriptions about the app’s capabilities. The tool can be controlled via the command-line panel in case you are familiar with writing console parameters.

SimpTerm gives you the possibility to establish a new connection by providing information about the remote host, server port and login name. It keeps a log which captures details about all actions and possible errors.

What’s more, you are allowed to refresh the screen, clear the current panel or screen buffer, reset the terminal, set up function keys, adjust the text in terms of font, font style and size, show or hide a vertical scroll bar and toolbar in/from the main window, as well as switch between different view modes, namely ASCII, BIG5, GB, or HZ.

SimpTerm comes packed with several tweaking parameters for helping you adjust the screen size by selecting the number of columns and rows, pick the cursor type (underline or block), and define the backspace key, arrow keys, and keypad.

You can set up the scroll buffer size, enable the line wrapping mode, configure the color of the text and screen, pick the emulation type, change the download directory, configure the Kermit error check and Kermit packet size, rename duplicate files, as well as discard partial files.

SimpTerm provides a straightforward approach for helping you carry out Telnet sessions and download files.
