Re: [M100] View-80 and escape codes
I'll have to experiment again and see why I had an issue. Might be the mvt100 driver specifically. On Wednesday, April 5, 2023, John R.

Re: [M100] View-80 and escape codes
That won't work. You can try but basic filters them out. On Wednesday, April 5, 2023, John R. Hogerhuis wrote: > Huh.

Huh. How about just print chr$ escapes in BASIC? -- John.

Re: [M100] View-80 and escape codes
I have my termcap file on my remote machine set to send certain escape codes for clearing the screen and such when I'm logged in. It works fine in plain vanilla Telcom — Lynx, Nano, and other programs display as expected. Switch to View-80, and it doesn't work. No cursor movements. No screen clearing. No delete-to-end-of-line. Enable View-80's Snoopy mode, and I can see that the escape codes are coming in, as View-80 helpfully displays the escape codes as custom combination characters like "Ec/K" and "Ec/n" But View-80 just doesn't handle them at all. > On Apr 4, 2023, at 3:04 PM, m100-requ...@lists.bitchin100.com wrote: > > Are you sure Wayne?
