Fine for you - but I log in to VMS as well as UNIX. That expects a 'real'
delete. Of course I can use the keypad DELETE key, but my fingers are used
to the <--- key being <DEL> (as that's how it is on a real VT100). Can
Win3 Terminal be made to do that?
Two more Win3 Terminal questions:
1- How do you send a BREAK ? (I need to do this before our system notices
me and allows a login).
2- How do you make VT100 emulation use the AT keyboard keypad in
as-near-as-possible emulation of the VT100 one? (I accept that I'll
have to map the PF[1..4] keys as F1..F4 or similar).
In the meantime, I'm going back to Kermit under DOS!

Nope, that feature of Dynacomm seems to be disabled in Windows Terminal. Bummer. >1- How do you send a BREAK ? (I need to do this before our system notices > me and allows a login). Have you tried Ctrl-Break? That's what Dynacomm uses. Joel Spolsky spolsky@cs.yale.edu Silence = Death

The only way I know of (and it's not ideal) is to program a function key with "^$B". Leave out the quotes ("). The special codes for function keys are listed on page 331. -- Marshall L.

(I don't know how to include files yet, but the question concerned the backspace key and Windows 3.0 Terminal when connected to a Unix machine): There was a post similar to this a few months ago that said to enable the Scroll Lock key to use your normal arrow, BS, etc. keys. It worked for me. Also, I have found that setting my term variable in Unix to VT200 works much better also. Just a few things to try.... Howard
