Hi there.

Hope you can help!

I am trying to setup the profile so that when the user click clone on a tab it will autologin. I have tried recording a macro and then replaying the macro but this just opens a new window without connecting the terminal or logging in.

If I go to script editor and press play it works as intended but I need this to work by right clicking the tab and cloning with an autologin. 

I am running AccuTerm 8.1 standard. Any help much appreciated!!

Thanks

I have approached this slightly differently. First of all, create a script like this one (called CloneSession.atsc):

Sub CloneSession
	Dim s, s2 as Session

	Set s = ActiveSession
	Set s2 = Sessions.AddClone(s)
	s2.Activate
	Chain "C:\Progfiles\Accuterm\mvlogon.atsc|Login default"
End Sub

I am assuming here that you already have your own login script. Just replace the ‘mvlogon.atsc’ script referenced here with the script that you actually use.

Next, go to:  Settings > Keyboard > Program the keyboard

Select a key combination (we use Shift-F12), and give that combination the key data of:

[Chain “C:\\PathToScript\\CloneSession.atsc|CloneSession”]

Now, you should be able to start a new session by pressing the Shift-F12 key combination. That will run the above script that (a) clones the current session; and (b) calls the login script.

Hope that helps.

Brian
