Product Description:

dataComet-Secure VX for OS X offers fast, reliable terminal emulation for local Shell sessions, Telnet, SSH1 & SSH2, and serial devices

Telnet sessions offer Kerberos 5 and SOCKS v4 security options
Supports both SSH1 and SSH2 sessions with strong encryption + SCP file transfer
Security features allow better local security than Terminal; e.g., you can allow Telnet and SSH use while denying users access to Shell sessions on Kiosk machines
Emulates VT100 - VT320, PC-ANSI, SCO-ANSI, and IBM-3279 for mainframe access
Extensive file transfer support: SCP, X/Y/ZModem, IBM IND$FILE
Edit windows for off-line composition with easy paste-thru to emulator windows using the Enter key
Thorough on-line documentation (500KB of text)
On-line help: pressing Control and selecting a menu or dialog item fetches the documentation for the item
Powerful AppleScript and macro support with automatic macro recording and an easy-to-use key remapping dialog
Modeless dialogs ease session configuration

What's new in this version:

Bug fixes include improved SSH2 and Shell session security, faster scrollback buffering, better support for automatic reconnects, and improved EMACS key handling.

New features include support for mouse wheel events, a full 16-color background option for VT100/VT220/VT320 sessions, and new security macros which allow dataComet-Secure VX to be configured for Kiosk applications where you need to allow users to make SSH connections, but deny them direct access to the Shell layer.

After what seemed like a realy long time with no updates DataBeast released 10.0.4 while is now compiled with Xcode. This seems to be good news, showing us they are still committed to the product. Hopefully this signal that work has begun on a Universal Binary version. Then my office is free from Rosetta!!!

I was hoping to start using this again, since Apple's terminal lacks some features found in DataComet-secure. Unfortunately, it seems to be pretty buggy under Tiger. It crashes when editing password fields, and there are other GUI glitches.
This is unfortunate, because this is a very good program otherwise.
Not perfect, but pretty good.
iTerm would be great, but it also crashes under certain circumstances.

Still looking for a terminal better than Apple's, that doesn't crash.
