MacWise - Macintosh Terminal Emulation - telnet / serial for OS X - Wyse, Viewpoint, VT100, VT220


MacWise Version 10 for OS X Replaces MacToPic


MacWise has taken on the functionality of MacToPic.

It runs natively in OS X and has the data transfer features of MacToPic
(Host-To-Mac and Mac-To-Host data transfers). It also supports the Special Host-To-Mac Commands of MacToPic.
VT220 emulation has also been added.
Telnet is built into MacWise so there is no longer a need for a telnet tool.
Secure Shell connections are also supported.
Internal modem and USB serial ports are supported.


This is good news for MacToPic users since MacWise is half the price of MacToPic.
MacWise is $95.00 per user.
Upgrades from MacToPic version 9 to MacWise version 10 are $75.00

Version 10.2 or later also has a feature that allows System Administrators to lock preferences to keep users from changing settings. This is an undocumented feature. Contact Carnation Software if you would like to know how this works.

MacWise version 10.5 or later supports AppleScript.

Note: MacToPic version 9 for OS 9 will continue to be sold and supported.
