I'm wish to use Xterm to telnet to a vax and use the EDT editor on that vax. I'm currantly using a sun 3/60. Except for the arrow keys the the default configuration for xterm does not send the correct function key codes. (sf option doesn't seem to do anything to help this) The function keys are along the top left side and the arrow keys are part of the "keypad". To use use EDT I have to make the keyboard act as much like a true vt100 keyboard as possible. I have tried reassign the keys (using the example in the Xterm man page as a model.) This works to some extent for the function keys along the top row F1-F9 but except for the arrow keys R8 R10 R12 & R14 all the R function keys (the right hand keypad) are ignored. It is these keys that I wish the most to be able to reassign. Does anyone else have a solution to this? How have others solved the Vax dilemma? (I know, I know, I should use emacs, but there are some users here that,do to old habits, refuse to switch to the newer editor) Thanks Back ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sback@elbereth.rutgers.edu back@r2d2.rutgers.edu back@chemz.rutgers.edu
