[comp.emacs] Need to get emacs to work with Procomm+PC

robert@peregrine.peregrine.com (Robert Young) (12/31/89)

We are moving to PCs plus PROCOMM to use as terminal substitution of our 
wyse60 terminals. In PROCOMM they have a "wyse50" definition which works
OK for the most part. Emacs gets really confused (better yet I get really
confused) when used with PROCOMM in terminal emulation mode (wyse50).

I am not very familiar with emacs but after reading a yellow manual I seem
to recognize at least one way in which my ".emacs" file can be modify to 
properly work with my PC. However, after looking at the .emacs I must 
admit that I get lost and cannot make too much sense out of it to fix
my problem.

Also the manual talks about a ../../lisp/term directory that contains a 
file similar to a termcap definition which is used by emacs after checking
the terminal type in use. 

I have GNU EMACS 18.41.1

Could any one help me with this problem. Any explanation of how to properly
set up emacs under a wyse50 terminal emulation will be appreciated. We are
moving all of our wyse60 terminals out so it is rather urgent for me to
come up with a solution. 

Thanks
