[net.emacs] What do the numbers in pad

rogerh@arizona.UUCP (Roger Hayes) (10/13/84)

Does anyone know what the parameters to pad(), in the Gosling terminal
drivers, mean?  Are they related to milliseconds in any way?

I am working on TrmWyse.c, a driver for the Wyse-75 terminal for
Unipress/Gosling Emacs.  I am using the Gosling driver 'TrmAmb.c' as a
template.  TrmWyse.c is working, but it overruns occasionally.  I hope
to be able to find out what delays are needed as soon as the Wyse
manual arrives (all we have now is a Quick Reference Card).  Then I
will need a way to translate milliseconds into code.

If you know what the corresponence is, please send me the info.  If I
get requests for the info, I will post a digest of the replies to the
net.  (If I recieve no requests, I won't -- this is pretty esoteric).

PS: The terminal is quite nice, and the Quick Reference Card is better
than many manuals I've seen.

PPS: I would be glad to give away TrmWyse.c, when I get it done.  But
what is the legal status?  It is mostly Gosling's code, I only changed
a few lines.

PPPS: Is there a Unipress Emacs user's group?
