Hi, currently I am playing around with the simulation of on old PDP-10 (DEC).
It is real fun to see and feel, how this dinosaurs of high power computing (the CPU of the PDP10, the KL10 processor has eaten 1.26 kW!!!!) The installation of the old tapes to finally get a fully functional TOPS-20 OS requires to enter such mysterious key compbinations like CTRL-/ (which at least on a german keyboard produces something totally different. Or in other words: The installation of the system is blocked by not haveing the correct keycodes. My questionis are: Are these old fashioned keycodes are part of a certain terminal emulation, so that I only have to change $TERM, or are they something to hack into .Xmodmap? Does anyone has a list with the mapping of these ancient keycode to any numerical value? Thank you very much ! Long lives the radio tube and CPUs of dicrete transistors!!! :) Have a nice XMas and a happy new Year 2011! Best regards, mcc
