Tips & Tricks from Pete Schellenbach
Did You Know?
You can now perform a silent install of AccuTerm. A feature mostly used for automated deployment by IT professionals, AccuTerm installations are “pushed” to PCs from the host server. There is an MSI installer embedded in the EXE installer. This is documented in the help, AccuTerm 8 Reference → Customizing the Installation Process. There is an example of the command line needed when using the MSI.
You can drag any session tab out of its window and it will open in a separate window. And you can drag it back to the original window or any other AccuTerm 8 window. Increase your productivity with tear off tabs – only available in AccuTerm 8.
