## What is Miu Term?

Miu Term is a telnet based BBS (Bulletin Board System) client on iPhone. It supports both simplified and traditional Chinese characters, Escape codes etc. 

Miu Term has following features specifically designed for iPhone's touch screen: 

1) It can recognize more than ten (1-finger and 2-finger) customizable gestures, providing users freedom and convenience to navigate the BBS site; 

2) It allows direct input of ascii characters on to the screen. A text-field will pop-up automatically when users input from other input methods (e.g. Chinese Pinyin, Stroke, Zhuyin etc.) and will disappear automatically once the user finishes input. 

3) A helm rect (gesture rect) is designed for zoom-in mode display. 

4) The user can toggle the customizable shortcut bar for simple command inputs without bothering toggling the keyboard. 

5) Cursor automatic-tracking helps to scroll the view to the user's desired content. 

6) Since v1.2.0, full-text article reading functions for smooth article readings, especially for zoom-in mode browsing. 

* iPad users: be noted that an HD version (Miu Term HD) is available separately.

### 5/5 — Very good terminal for bbs access

*2013-10-26, version 1.5.1*

I have been using the miu term hd on iPad 2 for about two years, like it very much. So, when I got my new iPhone 5s, I purchased this app for seamless transition between iPad and iPhone. It didn't let me down. 

The iPhone is running iOS 7.0.3, and this app runs smoothly and fluidly.  The user interface is rather intuitive, if you are used to the iPad hd version's gestures and shortcuts. 

Very satisfied with this app. Strongly recommend for terminal access to Chinese bbs sites on iPhone.
