mToken 4.0 Released, With SSH and VGA Support

[Janak Parekh]

<div class='os_post_top_link'><a href='http://www.choung.net/mToken/' target='_blank'>http://www.choung.net/mToken/</a><br /><br /></div>About two and a half years ago (I've been posting that long? 8O), <a href="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=12172">I posted</a> about a high-end terminal emulator called mToken, wishing for SSH support. Well, version 4.0 is here and it fulfills that wish! The SSH support appears robust, including compatibility with OpenSSH keys. There are other improvements, most notably full VGA support and hi-res bitmap fonts.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/web/2003/parekh-20060210-mToken4.gif" /><br /><br />It's not cheap at $49.95, but if you need a high-end terminal emulator, this should probably be on your short list. (There's also a lite version at $29.95, but without many of the new features.)

Has anyone compared this to sshCE (http://www.movsoftware.com/products/sshce/sshce.htm) or PocketPuTTY (http://pocketputty.duxy.net/)? I'm interested in picking up a WM5 phone, possibly a Verizon XV6700, but the investment is contingent on a having a good ssh client available.

ok..this is off topic but can't help it when I see the screen capture..
ha ha...this looks exactly like Norton Commander..my favourite navigation programme before symantec decided to can it... heh heh..I'm still using NC95 with reduced functions on Win XP though..

Don't forget PockeTTY (http://www.dejavusoftware.com/pocketty/). Hmm, I should do a comparative review of all four. If only I had time... :-?

It's a well-known Linux clone called Midnight Commander ("mc" on most Linux distributions). ;)
