[net.micro.amiga] Problems with 1.2 and Online!

jacobson@uiucuxe.CSO.UIUC.EDU (10/02/86)

Does anyone use Online! with their 1.2? I am using mine and find that when
i I am in VT emulation that I get my a,g,k,e,v,i,o keys redfined to "4"
 and my f,h,v,n, keys to a "u", and my K gives me nothing. Online only works
ffine in Ansi or TTY emulation. What gives, do I have to make some changes to
oone of my tables in Online when in VT100 mode?

Well I found from the docs for 1.2, which I had not looked at the thing about
using setmap usa0, so I at least know why Online! is so funny with 1.2. How
ever I can only get setmap to work in cli mode. If I put it in my startup-
sequence file I get the error: "setmap failed to set return code 20" Is
there a bug with setmap in beta 6? I sure would like to have the keymap
done in batch rather than having to use the cli everytime I want to doe
VT emulation in Online! with 1.2. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

	This is a problem with releases of 1.2 earlier than beta 4 or 5
or something like that.  Get beta 6 or 7 and your OnLine! problems should
go away.  It is a VERY bizarre bug somewhere in 1.2 (probably the serial.
device driver.)
