This has been my terminal emulator of choice for a couple years now.  The iPad version is usable, but lacks the ability to configure the keyboard, which is disappointing.  I spent a *LOT* on the Apple keyboard with the keypad.  I’m sort of able to import the key settings from my Mac Pro.  I’ve mainly been using it for VAX/VMS, OpenVMS, Multics, Linux, and OpenBSD.

I finally had to break down and install it on my work laptop, so I could log into some “ultra-secure” Linux boxes.  I didn’t particularly like what I saw.
