Regarding previous messages "IS there a terminal emulator that really works on the MAC with vi???????" I THINK I have finally found the stuff to make Red Ryder E.06 talk to vi on a 3B2 running System 5 V2 Rel 2, and not go insane in the process. (use RR vt100 emulation) The following 2 sections are a modified terminfo entry called 'macintosh' and a .exrc file that seem to work. (at least I can edit a file without RR going into the ozone) The changes made to the terminfo entry are as follows: o Change the htab char from ^I to lots of ^A's so vi doesn't use it. o Remove the csr (change scroll region) entry. This is what seems to make RR glitch and go into an infinite scroll on a 'dd' command. --------------------slice here then feed into tic---------------- macintosh, xon, cols#80, it#8, lines#24, vt#3, bel=^G$<50>, cr=^M, tbc=\E[3g, clear=\E[H\E[2J$<50>, el=\E[K$<3>, ed=\E[J$<50>, cup=\E[%i%p1%d;%p2%dH$<5>, cud1=^J, home=\E[H, cub1=^H, cuf1=\E[C$<2>, cuu1=\E[A$<2>, blink=\E[5m$<2>, bold=\E[1m$<2>, rev=\E[7m$<2>, smso=\E[7m$<2>, smul=\E[4m$<2>, sgr0=\E[m$<2>, rmso=\E[m$<2>, rmul=\E[m$<2>, kbs=^H, kcud1=\EOB, kf1=\EOP, kf2=\EOQ, kf3=\EOR, kf4=\EOS, kcub1=\EOD, kcuf1=\EOC, kcuu1=\EOA, rmkx=\E[?1l\E>, smkx=\E[?1h\E=, cud=\E[%p1%dB, cub=\E[%p1%dD, cuf=\E[%p1%dC, cuu=\E[%p1%dA, rs2=\E>\E[?3l\E[?4l\E[?5l\E[?7h\E[?8h, rc=\E8, sc=\E7, ind=^J, ri=\EM$<5>, sgr=\E[%?%p1%t;7%;%?%p2%t;4%;%?%p3%t;7%;%?%p4%t;5%;%?%p6%t;1%;m, hts=\EH, ht=^A^A^A^A^A^A^A^A^A^A^A^A^A^A^A, ------------------slice off------------------------------------- The only entry to be added to the .exrc file is ":set redraw".

What's the matter with MacKermit? Works like a charm for me as a vt100 emulator, and it's free / public domain. jeff m

Well, for one thing, it doesn't work with an European keyboard. Yes I know, there is a keyboard configuration program, but this doesn't seem to work right, and anyway it's very tedious to have to reconfigure the whole bottom row of your keyboard and several accent and other keys (for all combinations of Shift/Option/Caps Lock/Command!!). -- Guido van Rossum (guido@mcvax.UUCP)
