It runs as an accessory, and will run with most other programs that leave start-up accesories intact. Available from CSC Hightstown, NJ 08520 (609) 448-8889 $29.95 postpaid

Having tried the 520ST's built-in VT52 emulator with a Vax, I find that the function and cursor keys send only nulls, and the numeric keypad keys send only 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. This makes it virtually unusable with an editor driven by escape sequences and the question therefore is: can I program these keys to send characters, or sequences of characters, of my choice? I don't have any compilers, etc., only the software that comes with the machine. Any advice would be most welcome. -- Leila Burrell-Davis | JANET: leilabd%unx1.uucp@uk.ac.sussex.cvaxa University of Sussex | UUCP: ...!mcvax!ukc!cvaxa!unx1!leilabd Brighton BN1 9QN | UK |
