Ah I see.  Unless I mis-understand I meant the possibility of wintegrate emulating the 
xterm terminal emulation 

$ infocmp xterm | head -2
#   Reconstructed via infocmp from file: /usr/share/terminfo/x/xterm
xterm|X11 terminal emulator,

As opposed to emulating the xterm program 
$ which xterm
/usr/X11R6/bin/xterm

Which also happens to use the xterm terminal emulation although IIRC some of the other 
versions of xterm such as the kde or gnome versions can also emulate a vt100 or 
possibly ansi (it's been a while since I looked).

Excellent - thanks.

Re: Wintegrate xterm or Linux emulation

2004-02-24 Thread Ian Stuart
Isn't it a bit daft to emulate an emulator? If you like 
wIntegrate, just run that in a wine box and tell the app you're using 
wIntegrate.

Has anybody had success running wIntegrate or Dynamic Connect in a wine 
box on Linux.  I have tried using crossover from Codeweaver to install 
Dynamic Connect.  It runs successfully for about 2 minutes and then 
appears to go into "loop" where the cursor flashes all over the screen 
and the session has to be "killed".  I am really keen to get this to run 
on linux.

Thanks and regards
Ian Stuart

Yep, but the reason I said "I don't understand" was that wIntegrate is a
terminal emulator. And xterm is a terminal emulator (well, near as
dammit).

Isn't it a bit daft to emulate an emulator? If you like wIntegrate, just
run that in a wine box and tell the app you're using wIntegrate.

But if you want to know about writing wit files, I wrote the pt200/pt250
files that shipped with wIntegrate 4. I guess they haven't altered since
... ask me and if I can remember I'll help with any problems.

Cheers,
Wol

Not sure.  I will compare the infocmp output on the two and see.

For various historical reasons, we are currently using a hacked version
of the wyse60 emulation.  This works OK with our U2 app but fails on any
other app that properly uses terminfo.  We could hack the terminfo as
well but of course the correct thing to do is get our use of eumlations
right.

As we are moving to Linux at the moment I thought I would take the
opportunity to look at this and xterm and linux are common terminal
types (Putty emulates an xterm).  What I would like is to have
wintegrate correctly emulate either xterm or linux type terminals.  The
way to do this would seem to create my own wit file but I was wondering
if someone had already been down this road and would mind sharing.

Thanks,

Adrian

RE: Wintegrate xterm or Linux emulation

2004-02-23 Thread Hona, David S

xterm emulates a VT220, well it does for Hummingbird's Exceed X Emulator,
which I use (although, not for U2 stuff).

I guess your application has hardcoding for this Wyse 60 emulation?

Regards
David

Subject: Wintegrate xterm or Linux emulation
Dear All,

Has anyone managed to get winteg 4.2 to emulate xterm or linux terminal
types or does anyone know if winteg 5 emulates either of these?

Looking at wintegrate if I put together a .wit and put it in wintsys/wit
directory it might work but I thought I'd ask in case anyone has been
there.

Thanks,

Adrian
