About the Terminal activity package

The Terminal package contains activities designed to connect to a terminal and efficiently work within it. You can retrieve text, fields or screen positions, send keys, text, or wait for certain text or fields to appear as triggers.

Terminal Session is the activity that enables the user to connect to a specific terminal environment, using a direct connection or a 3rd party terminal emulation, such as Attachmate Reflection, Attachmate Extra, Rocket Bluezone, IBM Personal Communications, Reflection for UNIX, Reflection for IBM or other IBM EHLLAPI compatible terminal emulators.
