Capture Folder—General Category (VT)

VT

In the General category, you can set output options for VT sessions. This option lets you capture scrolling data that displays in the session window.

Save Mode—Specifies the save mode.

Overwrite—HostExplorer deletes the existing file by overwriting with the new information.

Append—HostExplorer adds the new file to the end of the existing file. This option only affects screen saves since, by default, HostExplorer saves screen captures in append mode. You can override this option when you save the screen in the Save Screen to Disk dialog box.

Capture Mode—Specifies how to capture selected text.

Raw—The system captures all data, including escape sequences, received by the emulator.

Text—Removes escape sequences so that what appears on the screen is what is sent to the printer. In this mode, the system captures every line that is terminated by a line feed allowing you to capture line by line output.

Save As Options

Confirm All Saves—Forces the "Save-Screen" command to prompt for a filename. By default, this option is selected.

Default Save Filename—Specifies a default path and file name HostExplorer uses for saved and captured files.

Capture Erased Screens—Lets you capture non-scrolling data before the host sends a command to erase the screen (for example, data that displays in a screen that clears in order to display more data). By default, this option is cleared.
