The Terminal property specifies the terminal type of the
server for display purposes. On UNIX based systems, the terminal
name corresponds to a termcap or terminfo entry as set in the TERM
environment variable. On Windows based systems which implement the
ssh service, this property may be ignored and the server will assume
that the client is capable of displaying ANSI escape sequences. On
VMS systems, the terminal name should correspond to the terminal type
used with the SET TERMINAL/DEVICE command.
If this property is set to an empty string and no terminal type is
specified when the Connect method is called, a default
terminal type named "unknown" will be used. On most UNIX
and VMS systems this defines a terminal which is not capable of
cursor positioning using control or escape sequences. This terminal
type may not be recognized and an error may be displayed when the
user logs in indicating that the terminal type is invalid.
Refer to the documentation for the server system to determine what
terminal type names are available to you. Remember that on UNIX
systems, the terminal type is case-sensitive. Some of the more common
terminal types are:
