About

WhippyTerm is a modern terminal application designed for use on contemporary operating systems like Windows and Linux. It features a sleek, user-friendly interface and supports communication protocols commonly used by embedded developers. The software supports serial communication standards such as RS232, RS485, RS422, and TTL UART, as well as TCP/IP and UDP. Unique capabilities include built-in hex dumps, bookmarks, and extensibility through plugins. WhippyTerm also offers native support for binary protocols and can send blocks of binary or ASCII data. It supports terminal emulations like ANSI by default, with options to add others such as VT100 via plugins.

About

xterm is a terminal emulator for the X Window System, first released to emulate DEC VT102 and Tektronix 4014 hardware and provide a windowed interface for applications that cannot access X directly. Each xterm window runs as a separate process, locally or remotely, while sharing keyboard and mouse input with only the focused window receiving events. It implements ANSI/ISO color support via the “new” color model for background erase and recognizes most VT220 control sequences, along with select features from VT320, VT420, and VT520 devices. Over its history, xterm’s terminal description evolved from VT102 (pre-1996) to VT220 (1996–2012) and, since 2012, to VT420, ensuring compatibility with modern applications. Xterm remains actively maintained and extensible through companion tools like luit for encoding support and the X Toolkit for resource configuration, making it a complete, standards-compliant emulator for Unix-based environments.
