Default values
Following default values are stored in the Tera Term setup file:
<TCP port#>
/B
<baud rate>
<serial port#>
<file transfer directory>
/H
<kanji code (receive)>
<kanji code (transmit)>
<language>
<macro file>
<telnet flag>
<icon name>
<window title>
<window pos (x)>
<window pos (y)>
Note
[1] Only if <telnet flag> is 1 (on) and <TCP port#> is 23, Tera Term starts spontaneously sending telnet commands to the host for the option negotiation when the TCP/IP connection is established. In any cases, Tera Term can respond to telnet commands sent by the host.
[2] Quote the multicast name when the name includes the space and `"' character. And then, a user should put the window title in quotations by using `"' character two times to include the character.
