Everyone has been say you just launch Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal, and you have a terminal emulator. No one said anything about loading a Windows based terminal emulator. How would i load a windows based terminal emulator while using OSX like you mention? You can do some key mapping via Terminal -> Preferences -> Settings -> Keyboad. I also need to be able to define keyboard mapping as we use non standard key layouts. That is what Applications -> Utilities -> Terminal is.
