I want a replacement for ANSI.SYS. I liked FCONSOLE.DEV (fansi), but
it doesn't work with some of my software. The things I like about
fansi are:
- increases size of keyboard buffer
- allows me to control time length of ctrl-g beep
- scrolls fast
- accepts extended escape sequences
- many other features
I would like a driver that does the above (or most) plus:
- supports 132 columns (nansi v2.2 doesn't)
- can speed up keyboard repeat rate
I know that separate programs can do the last thing mentioned. I need
one. I have one called RATE300.COM, but it freezes up a Compaq 386 and
an AT&T 6312. I have KEY386.COM also, and that makes a nice, snappy
repeat rate, but it kicks in way too soon, so I have lots of repeated
characters.
(I looked at the new newsgroups. Would this posting have fit into
.programmer or .apps?)
Thanks!
