I can't get ANY of the terminal emulation modes to work with U*IX. Strangely, VT52 works fine on VMS. Even something as simple as the "clear" command refuses to work. Has anyone else suffered similar problems? Any solutions? ritcv!jjv3345 Jeff Van Epps

The new Chamelon available from Antic has a VT52xl terminal emulator and the
corresponding TERMCAP entry in the supplied documentation. If you want I
will send you the TERMCAP entry but I don't know if it will work with the
old Chamelon.

The cursor control sequences appear to be decoded before the incoming parity is stripped. If your tty driver lets you send eight bit chars, you can use Chameleon. I found that setting and then clearing litout on our 4.2 vax seems to switch to into no parity mode. (I know. Its a bug, not a feature.) Does anyone out there have 8 bit mode mods for 4.2? -- Robert Bond nsc!nsc-pdc!rgb National Semiconductor tektronix!reed!nsc-pdc!rgb

I encountered the same problem with the VT-52 emulation mode of Chameleon. As I recall, the solution (obtained by trial and error) is to set the second parity field in the menu to ODD (the default for both parities is NONE). I have used my Atari 800 to dial-in to our VAX 750 a dozen times, and the Chameleon package works perfectly, even with tricky editors like Jove! David Comstock Tymnet, Inc. The opinions expressed above are mine, and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of my current employer, Tymnet, or my former employer, ATARI.
