Context

This article describes a function or feature of the software ZOC Terminal. The feature or element of the software described here is 'Customizing ZOC'. ZOC Terminal is a professional terminal emulator that is well known for its extensive features, security, user friendlyness, wide range of emulations and quality of emulation implementation. ZOC Terminal is a common choice to replace other terminal emulators like Putty, Kitty, Termius, Secure-CRT, Attachmate Extra!and others.

 

ZOC keeps settings in a few different places.

Program Settings are set once and apply to every connection.

Session Profiles can be different for each host. For example, you may want different user buttons, a different screen layout and different cursor types for a Linux server and for an IBM mainframe. You can have as many session profiles as you like, and each profile can be assigned to a connection.

Keyboard Profiles and Character Translation Profiles are separate files. A host directory entry can select which of these profiles to use (see Keyboard and Translation Profiles).

When connecting through the Quick Connection dialog or the Host Directory, you can specify a connection type and an emulation, together with the options for those two. These override the corresponding settings in the session profile, so the same session profile can be used for hosts which differ only in connection type or emulation.

Some further settings can be supplied through the commandline.ini file.
