I have noticed a similar problem when using the VT100 emulator. I get about a full screen of text in the buffer and then I get a screen full of carriage return. This isn't nearly as big of a problem as you have but it is a big inconvenience when I try to read the buffer. Oh well, someone will come up with a better solution than Flash soon. . Scott P.

Hello all,
Does anyone know how to edit flash so that it emulates a VT100 terminal
correctly. Flash wont recognize all of the escape sequences. It doesn't
seem to be able to recognize things like :
Flashing text
Double sized text
Underlined text
Inversed text
... and a few others
Also, does anyone know what the most recent version of flash is?
I am using version 1.6

Thank you :)mwjester@wsuiar.uucp (loki) (09/13/90)

Are you sure about the inversed text, though? I recall using Flash with EDT a lot. Flash basically handles the things that the plainest-vanilla VT100 would be able to handle, except for 132-column mode. For a more capable terminal emulator, I would recommend Uniterm. It does a pretty good job with almost all the VT100 stuff, including a good hack for the 132-column mode (you get about 126). The VT220 clone I'm typing this on doesn't do as good a job as Uniterm. Also, it has Kermit built in, besides the BBS-oriented protocols. And the price is right. > Also, does anyone know what the most recent version of flash is? > I am using version 1.6 Can't help you there - the last version I used was 1.52 or something close. Max J.

Hello World I need some help with the translation table in Flash. I can't change the backspace key to a backspace, I'm getting ^h when I hit it. I know how to change regular keys, but the backspace and delete is killing me. And I don't want to die just yet. Also in Uniterm, is there a capture buffer than can be viewed with a click of the mouse like in flash? Thanks. Matthew -- But I still like my ST...
