public class JCTermSpec

extends StringData

This GetOpt element parses terminal specifications. The syntax is:

        terminal-type [arguments...] 
   

It expects a keyword naming a terminal type followed by individual arguments depending on the terminal type.

The supported terminal types are all those supported in the package com.ibm.jc.terminal and one generic terminal which allows you to tie in custom terminal implementing abstract class JCTerminal.
