[comp.protocols.nfs] SUN PC-NFS Telnet keyboard Patch.

slang@waikato.ac.nz (03/05/91)

We have recently written a program that emulates the PF1 key and other
keypad keys by using an enhanced pc keyboards keypad (including NUMLOCK) for
SUN PC-NFS Telnet on the PC. This gets around a major failing with the keyboard
handling in PC-NFS and allows a Telnet session to more accurately emulate the
keyboard of a terminal. It comprises if a small TSR that intercepts the low
level keyboard BIOS routines, and pokes characters back into the keyboard
buffer. No guarantees that it will work with your/any PC or other TSR software,
but we will be using it here. If anybody reading this would like to try it,
Mail me, and we should be able to make some arrangements for it's distribution.
