Opie Console is profile oriented. A "Profile" contains the
information necessary to connect to a remote host. For example
it determines which connection type, terminal type, font, color and more
to be used.
To set up a connection you can either use a previously saved profile
or choose to create a connection on the fly.
To create a new connection, you can either go to "Connection" and select "New Connection",
or click the "New" Button (
) or
choose "New from Profile" and use a previously saved Profile.
How to use the Profile Dialog
After you clicked OK on the Connection Dialog you will see a new tab
was created. Depending of your preference either you're already connected
or you need to connect.
To connect click on the "Connection" menu and then on "connect". If you want to
disconnect you need to click "disconnect".
When you're done select "Close Window" from the "Connection" this will also
close the the connection and remove the widget from the main application view.
If an application in the terminal hangs you may choose to terminate that Connection
Text which gets selected inside the Terminal Widget will be transparently copied to the clipboard. You do not need to add it your self via a copy button.
