[comp.terminals] Wyse 350 keyboard codes

paul@csnz.nz (Paul Gillingwater) (05/10/88)

Hi net-landers!  We have inherited a number of Wyse 350 colour
terminals.  Heigh-ho, we thought, at last we can have a consistent
usage of terminals on our 3B2, instead of a mish-mash of LN220, Qumes,
DEV VT100 and some even weirder!  We already have a Wyse 350 running
just fine with Qoffice, vi etc, so I just plugged 'em in and
setenv TERM wy350 .... the screen looks OK but the keyboard 
she no go...  a little checking and the problem was narrowed down
to the cursor keys - one the existing Wyse 350 they generate the
codes I would expect: ^H, ^J, ^K, ^L.  But the new Wyses (Wysi?)
which have same model no. generate ^[[A, ^[[B, ^[[C, ^[[D.  
The SETUP options are identical, the emulation modes are the same
(Wyse 50) - what am I doing wrong?  Of course, like many sites, 
the manuals have long gone West....

Any help appreciated,
