[comp.terminals] Sun Console terminal programming

pwh@bradley.bradley.edu (Pete Hartman) (03/05/91)

For most "terminals", I can get a manual describing how to
program it.  This usually contains a lot of info not necessarily
in the termcap/terminfo database, things like the arcane "^[[1r"
to put the sun console into one-row at a time scrolling rather than
jump scrolling.  I have been unable to find this information in
my Sun manuals (although it is concievable that I simply haven't found
the right place to look).  Is it available in any form anywhere?

The biggest part of the problem is that right now one of the Sparc 1's
I'm responsible for has managed to get into no-scroll mode, where it wraps
around to the top of the screen when normally it would scroll.

Any and all pointers will be very appreciated.  Email is preferred....
If interest warrants, I'll summarize.
