My first posting.......be kind :-)
We have a problem with Kermit (2.32/A) and certain PCs. On some PCs the
Numeric Keypad "5" key does nothing. We do try to redefine that key; the
keys works on some PCs and not on others. The redefinition seems to be
fine.
Fails on: NCR PC8 (NCR ROM BIOS 4-2), NCR PC6, NCR PC8/10
Works on: IBM AT (original), DTK clone (Phoenix BIOS?)
We run DOS 3.2 on all machines.
We use the following set key for the numeric "5" key in our ini file:
set key \332 \27G
Show key does the following:
Kermit-MS>show key<CR>
Push key to be shown (? shows all):
....Pressing the numeric keypad "5" produces nothing....
Listing all keys with a "?" shows:
Scan code \332 decimal is defined as
String: ^[G
Could it be a BIOS problem on the NCR? Since it works on some machines
should I assume it isn't Kermit? (Please say yes...someone!)
Please Email responses.
Thanks in advance......
Jeff
PS: Sorry for cross posting this to comp.sys.ncr...just hedging my bets. (We
have an NCR 32/600: justification enough? ;-)
