RE: [U2] TCL Command stacker
I know That is why I said it looked promising. :-) IE was able to get it to work but it was definitely not ready to be recommended until I understood the nuances. Thanks for the heads up, Doug At 04:18 PM 4/16/2008, you wrote: Before you propose to a customer, make sure their terminal emulator and COMMAND.EDITOR play well together. I guess there are some tricks to smooth out things between AT2k and COMMAND.EDITOR. I put COMMAND.EDITOR ON ALL in my login PA and that was the end of my cursor keys and num pad. fwiw --- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
RE: [U2] TCL Command stacker
If you run the following in a Basic program (In Universe vers 10) ASSIGN 1 TO SYSTEM(4001) This will turn on up arrow processing where- Up/Down arrow keys scroll through TCL stack Left/Right arrow keys move through the displayed command Ctrl-A moves cursor to the beginning of the line Ctrl-E moves cursor to the end of the line Backspace is used to delete characters I'm note sure where I found it, but it works pretty good...

RE: [U2] TCL Command stacker
Baker, This can be fixed by changing the initialisation string in your UV terminfo database for your terminal type you're using (copy source/original, re-compile uv terminfo, etc). By default it changes the numeric keypad to Application mode fot DEC VT-series emulations. Or change your emulator to overide that (if you can). Also best NOT to use ALL option if you have you own keyboard input handling program. As it will trap all control characters itself. It also conflicts with !EDIT.INPUT subroutine and INPUT @(x,y) functions (ie. It will crash and probably drop you to the OS prompt). COMMAND.EDITOR [ON|OFF] [ALL] [TCL prompt string] ALL = (optional) Input editing on all input prompts (including BASIC programs, etc). TCL Prompt = (optional) - define alternative TCL prompt Example: COMMAND.EDITOR ON [EMAIL PROTECTED] COMMAND.EDITOR ON [EMAIL PROTECTED] If using DEC VT emulation, you can use the cursor keys to edit the command-line and scroll-up and down the TCL stack (using PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN keys - depending on your keyboard emulation key settings).
