  3. Select New Application Definition.

  4. In the Type drop-down list, click Terminal Launcher.

  5. In the Name field, specify a name for the application definition (in this example, Eicon Aviva), then click OK. The new application definition is added to the Applications pane.

  6. Double-click the new application definition. The Details tab is displayed.

  7. Click the Definition tab. The application definition editor is displayed.

  9. In this example for Eicon Aviva, type the following in the text box:

    WaitForText "WELCOME TO THE EICON TECHNOLOGY DATA CENTER "
    Type @E
    WaitForText "ENTER USERID -"
    Type $Username
    Type @E
