Does anyone know which key on the MacPlus maps to the BREAK key in Kermit? Thanks, in advance. Nadeem Malik. malik@emx.utexas.edu

This is one of the many nice things about Mac Kermit (version 0.9 (40)). Go to the "settings" menu, select "Set key macros", then pick *any* key and hit it. A dialog box will pop up: type "\break" or "\longbreak", hit the "OK" button, and you now have a break key! I use the "clear" key on the Mac Plus keypad. This function is especially nice with our DataDesk keyboard for quick and painless use of all those function keys! Make sure you remember to save your new settings, though since Kermit *doesn't* remind you to do so when you quit...(oh well, nothing's perfect :-) ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :: Boyd Ostroff, Technical Director :: System Operator, "The CallBoard" :: Department of Theatre, SUNY Oswego :: - Serving the performing arts - :: Internet: ostroff@oswego.Oswego.EDU :: (315) 947-6414, 300/1200/2400 baud :: Voice: (315) 341-2987 :: UUCP ...sunybcs!oswego!cboard!ostroff :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Can I define a NULL key as well? My emacsing is suffering because <command>-SPACE (vt100 ctrl-space) doesn't send a null, and <command>-shift-2 (ctrl-@) ejects the disk in the external drive, as expected. -- - Ralph W.

You might give CMD-2 (NO SHIFT!) a try - I have found that to work on a couple of programs. Jon

After that, you enter the characters you want to send. At this point a "help button" appears summarizing your options. You can send any character you want by entering its octal code, so to send a null, enter \000 and it should work. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :: Boyd Ostroff, Technical Director :::::: System Operator, "The CallBoard" ::: :::: Dept of Theatre, SUNY Oswego ::::::: (315) 947-6414 300/1200/2400 baud ::: ::::: ostroff@oswego.Oswego.EDU :::::::: rutgers!sunybcs!oswego!cboard!sysop :: :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
