MacWise version 10.1 for Mac OS X was released today by Carnation Software.
MacWise allows a Mac to be used as a terminal, connected to a host computer directly, by modem, or over the Internet. It also communicates directly with the Mac Unix shell. The emulators support video attributes such as dim, reverse, underline, 132-column modes and graphic characters sent from the host computer, as well as enhanced Viewpoint mode. Features include phone list and dialer, on-screen programmable function keys, connection scripts and more.
You can connect via telnet, ssh, serial port or modem port. MacWise emulates ADDS Viewpoint, Wyse 50, Wyse 60, Wyse 370, Televideo TV 925, DEC VT100 and Prism terminals. Esprit III color is also supported in Wyse 370 mode.
Beside Mac OS X support, MacWise 10.1 supports multiple sessions, connection scripts and settings files. You can now open up to 10 windows. Each window can be connected to a different host computer or you can have multiple sessions with the same host, according to MacTech magazine . Connection scripts allow you to automatically log-in with your user name and password. Settings can be saved for each session window and recalled at a later time.
The upgrade is free for registered users of MacWise 10. Upgrades from MacWise 4 to version 10.1 are US$75 per user.
