It's been at least 6 years since I've touched RSTS/E, but as I recall, if you set the high bit on the character code, RSTS does no translation on it. Thus, instead of CHR$(27), use CHR$(128+27). Again, this was a long time ago, and since then, DEC has introduced multi- national terminals that do use the high bit, so things may have changed. -- Ted Marshall ...!ucbvax!mtxinu!blia!ted <or> mtxinu!blia!ted@Berkeley.EDU Britton Lee, Inc., 14600 Winchester Blvd, Los Gatos, Ca 95030 (408)378-7000 The opinions expressed above are those of the poster and not his employer.
