[net.emacs] Zenith & FN questions

larry@JPL-VLSI.ARPA (09/11/86)

If you'll mail me your termio.c and ansi.c files from the 3.6 uEmacs that gave 
you 50 lines I'll see if I can figure out how to insert those changes into 3.7.
Hopefully, however, the author of those changes is on this distribution list 
and can do it.

As for the FNx notation, in bind-to-key commands they refer to special key codesproduced on PCs and clones.  FN indicates a function key (F1-F10 and their shfitcontrol, and alternate versions plus the keypad) and the x is a character code 
to indicate which one. A ; is F1, < is F2, M the left arrow, m is Alt-F6, and 
so on.  I found a table for these values in Norton's Programmers Guide to the 
IBM PC on page 135, so I didn't look for it in the IBM Tech Ref material.  It 
should be their somewhere; look for references to the auxiliary byte or to the
scan code.
