Introduction to Terminal Launcher

Terminal Launcher configures terminal emulator applications and enables them for single sign-on.

Terminal Launcher does the following:

• Acts as the translator between an emulator login sequence and a user's variables (for example, the username and password) stored in SecureLogin.
• Coordinates the information being entered onto a mainframe or Telnet screen.

Terminal Launcher can use High Level Language Application Programming Interface (HLLAPI) commands to interface with a wide range of mainframe emulators.

The SecureLogin scripting language enables you to enter a variety of keystrokes through Terminal Launcher to an emulator. For information on scripting and the commands used with Terminal Launcher, see the Nsure SecureLogin 3.51.2 Scripting Guide.

Terminal Launcher supports the following emulator types:

• HLLAPI
• DDE
• VBA
• Generic
• Advanced Generic

Standalone users or SecureLogin administrators can choose to start emulator applications in Terminal Launcher. However, users in most organizations are unlikely to have access to Terminal Launcher.
