I, too, would like to see a termcap for the pc which is running ansi.sys. In fact, I have written one for myself: pc|ibmpc|ibm pc using ansisys:\ :am:co#80:li#24:up=\E[A:dn=\E[B:nd=[C:bc=\E[D:ho=\E[H:cm=\E[%d;%dH:\ :cl=\E[2J:ce=\Ek:so=\E[1m:se=\E[0m:us=\E[4m:ue=\E[0m:md=\E[1m:\ :mr=\E[7m:me=\E[0m:is=\E[=2h\E[?7h: Unfortunately, I have not tested it. I have been using the IBM async package to do terminal emulation, which is ok, except that it apparantly ignores (wipes out? goes around?) the ansi.sys package. None of the escape sequences work as advertised, and none of the keys (except for the ascii 128) output anything. Is there any way to get the async package to include ansi.sys, and is there a way to get the unused keys to output *something* to the port? Does it require a hack to the async code? If so, has anyone done it? Thanks also for the help. -- Lyle McElhaney (hao,brl-bmd,nbires,csu-cs,scgvaxd)!denelcor!lmc

Last summer I had to get ansi.sys to work with IBM async. The way I did
it was to write a machine language routine that used INT21 to display
characters on the screen. That way ansi.sys gets used. Of course there
is some conflict if you use basic `prints` to display things also.
Nothing a bit more hacking wouldn`t cure.
