Howdy folks, I just got an RS/6000 530 to play with, and I'm trying to get it set up to the point of being useful. The problems I'm having are these: - I compiled emacs, and it runs fine except the cursor keys don't work. Both at the console and remote terminals, all I get from them is B's and D's and such, or beeps, depending on its mood. Using control keys works fine, but sucks. - I'd kill for tcsh. Does anyone have this compiled for AIX? Any help is much appreciated. -Tas ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Tas Dienes tas@hmcvax.claremont.edu Harvey Mudd College Claremont, CA 91711

Using control keys works > fine, but sucks. curses.h is broke. It has two sets of KEY_defines, one for NLS support another one that's more like what you see on other Unix systems. You can fix it by making sure that the symbol NLS is defined before curs is included. So everywhere you see #include <curses.h> you should preceed it with #define NLS 1 or some such... ======================================================================== Ed Spire email: ets@wrkgrp.com (on uunet) The Workstation Group voice: 800-228-0255 6300 River Road, Suite 700 or 708-696-4800 Rosemont, Illinois 60018 fax: 708-696-2277
