Debug mode is a troubleshooting tool that allows WindTerm to create additional and more detailed logs of the session’s activity.

You may enable debug mode and send the logs if you have particular issues of the terminal output or slow keyboard response and so on.

Leaving debug mode on is not recommended once your issue has been resolved because it will slow down the WindTerm’s normal operation.

Quick Start

WindTerm supports X11 forwarding, which allows a user to start up remote applications but forward the application display to the local machine.

• Internal X display
  WindTerm uses XMing as an embedded X server. WindTerm can start XMing automatically when X11 forwarding requests with no extra configuration.

• External X display
  WindTerm supports external X server too, just uses “IP:DisplayNum.ScreenNum” to point to the location of your local X server.

X11 Forwarding

Quick Start

WindTerm supports three types of SSH port forwarding:

• Direct/Local port forwarding
  Connections from an SSH client are forwarded, via the SSH server, to a destination server.

• Reverse/Remote port forwarding
  Connections from an SSH server are forwarded, via the SSH client, to a destination server

• Dynamic port forwarding
  Connections from various programs are forwarded, via the SSH client to an SSH server, and finally to several destination servers.
