I am trying to get an HP shell window (wsh) under Windows/9000 to emulate a vt100. By default it comes up as an hp2622. After I create a window I can change the environ variables to be vt100 and do a tset to change the termcap but it still won't emulate a vt100 correctly. Are there any vt100 term emulators written for HP Windows/9000? Also, how can I add/modify the menu picks on the pop-up system menus? Both X windows and Sunview use dot rc files but the docs for the HP system seem to say I have to make function calls (e.g. wmenu_add) to "edit" the pop-up menus. Unfortunately I must use HP Windows instead of X so please don't suggest that I change that. Any help would be greatly appreciated! =========================================================================== | Steve Deal | Internet: deal@Kodak.COM | | Eastman Kodak Co. | UUCP: ...rutgers!rochester!kodak!eis!deal | | Engr.

The TERM environment variable termcap are used by applications to know what kind of terminal you have. They don't tell terminal emulators what terminal to act like. The wsh command can't emulate a vt100. > Are there any vt100 term emulators written for HP Windows/9000? The HP third party software catalog lists a vt100 emulator for HP Windows/9000 from Optimation, Inc. Suite 282 201 San Antonio Circle Mountain View, CA 94040 (415) 941-2021 > Also, how can I add/modify the menu picks on the pop-up system menus? > Both X windows and Sunview use dot rc files but the docs for the HP system > seem to say I have to make function calls (e.g. wmenu_add) to "edit" > the pop-up menus. There are no configuration files for the system menus. You would need to write a program that created its own menus. Mike Stroyan, stroyan@hpfcla.hp.com
