Ref: Key Pad problems

I have the same problem when using TINCAN V3.0 with IBM mainframe to logon
to BITNET all PF keys do not work at all.  I am now stop logon under Spectre
Macintosh mode but using the program called PC INTERCOM. It is quite an old pro
gram but allowing me to config Atari function key to put in my Account No, Pass
word, and other command wich saving a lot of time than keying them in every
time. Only drawback is that this program does not have PCTRANS file transfer
protocol. It got kermit though. I use Kermit to tranfer all Atari files to my
computer. As for the Mac program I will log on with PC Intercom and set every
thing ready for file transfer then quit PC Intercom while still online. Switch
to Spectre and run TINCAN to download Mac program with PCTRANS protocol. It
save time from using Transverter to convert to MFS format. I can just BINHEX it
and unstuff. I also have not try to config PF key for the RedRyder but seems
that many netters are using this Program. Suthipuntha, School of Architecture
