I just recently ftp'd GNU Emacs 18.57 and would really like to get it to work under SCO Unix 386. Im using "m-intel386" and "s-usg5-3.h" in the build stage. I have X11 and all the rest defined. It comes back with an executable. Running the executable will load up all the list but the arrow keys are useless . They produce 2's 4's 6's and 8's . Any reason for this?? Anybody got this to work??? Any help would be most appreciated. Peter +----------------------------------------------------------------------+ acps2924@ryerson.ca ! Who is the !

Now all you need is a bit of E-lisp code called 'at386.el' which, when put in your /usr/local/emacs/lisp/term and directory called in your .emacs init file, will set up all your PC keys to include arrows, PgUp, PgDn, and let you define your function keys to useful actions. It's reasonbably widely available, but if have trouble finding at386.el, I'll be glad to E-mail it to you. You might want to check out THE UNIX DESKTOP GUIDE TO EMACS by myself and Dr. Mark Boyd (out in August from Howard W. Sams). It has a lot of tips like the above in it for GNU, Freemacs, MicroEmacs, UniPress, Epsilon, and other flavors of Emacs. Emacs is really wonderful ;-). -- Ralph Roberts author@cs.unca.edu | The Unix Desktop Guide to Emacs Asheville, N.C. | Compute!'s Computer Viruses (704) 252-9515 | The Veteran's Guide To Benefits (704) 255-8719 (fax) | + 19 other books & 1000s of articles
