TipTop Terminal Emulation Program


TipTop was an extensible telecommunication and terminal emulation program. ANSI, DEC VT102 and VT220 emulations, all with ANSI color support, were included. TipTop allowed multiple serial port (modem) connections and shell sessions.

The easy-to-use GUI included standard NeXTStep user interface features. The terminal window featured a toolbar, scrollback buffer, find panel and changeable fonts. The built-in PhoneBook facilitated easy and convenient configuration of communication parameters, window appearance and other settings. Flexible keyboard mapping allowed you to redefine any key as any character, string of characters, or script.

TipTop came with a powerful script programming language based on Tel, Expect and Objcccive- C languages. An automatic script generator made it easy to create basic scripts. The scripting language could run Michael O'Reilly's terminal program, which allowed simultaneous SLIP-like connections to a remote UNIX site.

Bundled file transfer protocols included X-, Y- and ZModem. Any external transfer protocol could be used with TipTop. The transfer application programming interface included allowed external transfer protocols to be fully graphically integrated with TipTop.
