[net.micro.apple] Termcaps for Apple IIs

dennis@qumix.UUCP (Dennis T. Chen) (10/13/83)

Does any one in this group have a termcap entries for Apple II,
Apple II+ and Apple IIe (either 40 or 80 columns screen) ?
I would be appreciated if you can send me a copy of those via mail.

Thanks in advance

#This entry assumes that you are using an apple with the UCSD Pascal
#language card.  SYSTEM.MISCINFO is assumed to be the same as that 
#supplied with the standard apple except that screenwidth should be set
#using SETUP to 80 columns.  Note that the right arrow in not mapped in
#this termcap entry.  This is because that key, on the Apple, transmits
#a ^U and would thus preempt the more useful "up" function of vi.

Dear Dennis,

I have a Franklin Ace 1000 (which is an Apple II+ clone in case you
don't know) with a Franklin 80 column card.  I also purchased ASCII
EXPRESS "The Professional" from Soutwestern Data Systems which includes
stuff for file transfer, printing, and other things as well as terminal
emulation.  It is a well done piece of software and is worth the price
(~$90 in BYTE).  However, along the way I have hacked a termcap entry
for the native hardware that works well even without the emulation
software running.  I don't know if the Videx 80 column board is the
same as mine though.  Contact me if I can be of further assistance.

Here is the termcap entry:
xx|frank|Franklin Ace 1000:\
	:bs:bw:cd=^K:ce=^]:cl=^L:cm=^^%r%+ %+ :\

Dennis:

     I use the following termcap with ASCII Pro Express communications
package (~$125.00 and well worth it!).  I bought it after several
attempts at writing and testing homegrown termcaps--all unsuccessful.
Termcap follows:

|apple|Apple II+ running ASCII Express Pro--vt52:\
      :bs:\
      :co#80:\
      :li#24:\
      :up=\EA:\
      :nd=\EC:\
      :ce=\EK:\
      :cl=300^L:\
      :cd=\EJ:\
      :ho=\EH:\
      :cm=\EY%+ %+ :

I configure .profile as follows:

stty erase ''
PATH=:/musr2/lbin:/bin:/usr/bin
export PATH
PS1='=ptah=>'
echo 'TERMINAL?: \c'
read TERM
case $TERM in
  apple)
        TERMCAP=/musr2/mww/apple.tcap
        export TERMCAP
        export TERM
        ;;
      *)
        TERMCAP=/etc/termcap
        export TERMCAP
        export TERM
        ;;
esac

                               Good luck,

I have been using the following termcap for my Apple ][+.  It requires
an 80 column Videx (or lookalike) card.  This version uses the reverse
character set eprom which may not be on all cards.  The 250 delay for
cl is a little long and you might be able to shorten it.

This is my first try at a termcap.  It seems to work fine, but if anyone
has any suggestions I would appreciate them.

P.s. Hello Dennis!
