[net.micro.atari] BREAK on the ST

bds@mtgzz.UUCP (b.d.szablak) (12/10/85)

How does one generate a BREAK on the ST in VT52 emulation mode? Failing that,
is it possible to generate it through an xbios call? Thanks for any help.

*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR MESSAGE ***
I hit a lot of CTRL-C in rapid succession in the VT emulator. I don't
recall seeing an xbios call to generate a break.

One trick that works on a lot of machines is to set the speed to the
lowest it will go, and send a null ( usually control-@ ).  I don't know
about the ST, since I don't have access to one.
