Unable to set iterm2 to be embedded in RDM
I am new to MacOS and trying to reconfigure my connections. I want to set a generic terminal window to stay embedded within my RDM app. Everytime I open the Term, it is always external. Is this normal behavior?

Hi,
Are you referring to the Command Line entry? If so, regardless of if you are using Terminal.app or iTerm.app, it's impossible in macOS to embed such application in a tab inside of RDM. In Windows, the WinAPI allows to embedded external application windows inside the application, but no such thing exists for macOS.
That being said, we currently have an opened ticket to adapt the terminal engine we use for SSH, Telnet and Serial Port entries to be used as a regular local embedded terminal. Would that fit your need?

Ok, thank you, that is very helpful! Any idea on the progress of that ticket?
Unfortunately no, but I will post back in this thread as soon as I get more news.

Hi,
RDM and RDM Free 2022.2.11.0 are now available with the Local Shell feature. An embedded Local Shell can now be opened with the Tools -> Terminal item:

Xavier, thanks for the update. Is there a way to customize the terminal that gets opened?
