Some inexpensive terminals don't support the pipe and telde, specifically a Commodore Vic. In my quest for making UNIX available to the masses, one user of this system is having great difficulty with those characters. Does anyone know how to substitute a character (control-a, for example) for the pipe character, to the shell? Control-a is one of the unused function keys on the Vic. Thanks in advance. Joe.
