Look into the Kernel System Manager manual.  It contains tons on each of the Kernel modules, including the Device Handler.

Mike (or others),

Do you know how devices and terminal types interact.
I was having a difficulty with a login from linux.  I
included code in my .bashrc script that took a user
directly into vista as soon as they logged in.  I got
an error from vista "device 0" not defined in the
DEVICE file.

This makes me think that vista somehow figures out
what kind of device the user is connecting from, and
chooses a DEVICE.  Then that device has a TERMINAL
TYPE with it.  For example, there is a DEVICE type of
GTM-LINUX-TELNET.  This is TYPE=VIRTUAL TERMINAL, and
SUBTYPE=C-VT132.

When I print from Fileman, it asks me DEVICE. If I
just press enter here, it defaults to TELNET.

I wonder which manual would document this stuff.

Thanks
Kevin


P.S. What you said below is true.  I posted that it
wasn't asking me for my terminal type.  But If I exit
GTM and then re-log on later, it does ask.

Thanks

Kevin,

I haven't looked at this for a long time but as I
recall there was
some code in XUS to query for the terminal type.  If
it got back
something it recognized it set the terminal and that
was that.  If you
want to change it to a particular type once you have
logged in I think
you can go to user toolbox and select a terminal
type.  I think it
will remember what you typed in there as long as you
stay logged on.

One quick additional note:

I edited my user such that ASK DEVICE TYPE AT
      
SIGN-ON
    
was set to ASK.  I halted, killed DUZ, logged back
      
in
    
with do ^ZU, and the system never asked me what
      
device
    
type I wanted.

Thanks

Hey All,

I am confused about display types.  My ultimate
        
goal
    
is to get to text version of CPRS (i.e. menu
        
option
    
OR
OE/RR MENU CLINICIAN) to display bigger than it
currently is.

I got to the User's Toolbox, and select, Edit
        
User's
    
Characteristics.  It asks me for Select TERMINAL
TYPE
NAME.  But for some reason, I don't have access
        
to
    
all
the Terminal Types.  For example, in this edited
screen log I have only 14 options for terminal
        
type
    
c-*

Select TERMINAL TYPE NAME: C-VT320// C-

But, if I look in the TERMINAL TYPE file itself,
        
I
    
find that there are 41 options (C- subset)...
        
One of
    
which is a 132 column terminal (C-Dec132) I
        
would
    
like
to use.

To further add to my confusion, when I do an
        
INQUIRE
    
in file 200 for my entry, I see an entry for
TERMINAL
TYPE LAST USED: C-VT3200.  I though I could edit
this
to entry to be the terminal type I want.  But I
can't
figure out which field this is...
