Request for Timestamp Display Feature in Teraterm Interface #255

Open yakoye opened 2 months ago

yakoye commented 2 months ago

Hi, could the timestamp function be added to the display in the Teraterm interface? I see that there is an option for adding a timestamp in "Additional settings" -> "Log" -> "Timestamp", which adds timestamps to logs being recorded.

Can this feature also be selected to be displayed on the interface?

I think Tera Term is a terminal emulator, not a monitoring tool like serial monitor. The role/duty is emulating output from remote side. Adding other something is exceeds its purpose.

I am very grateful for your reply. Since there is already a timestamp function in the log, I think whether an option can be added to control whether the timestamp is displayed on the window. Because I often use Tera Term regularly, due to the lack of timestamp function when displaying, I have to look for other tools as alternatives, I find it a bit of a pity. I still hope that this function can be added, users can choose to turn it on, by default it is not turned on.
