I'm having some problems getting dxterm on a DECstation 3100 to work when DECnetted to a VMS machine. We do a SET TERM/INQUIRE in the system login and a SHOW TERM is identical with a SHOW TERM from a SET HOST session from VAXStation 2000 running VWS. A few things that seem odd follow: 1. Control-Z, Control-C, and Control-Y all echo from the VMS machine as ^Z,^C,and ^Y rather than the reverse video Exit,Cancel, and Interrupt. 2. The arrow keys do not work properly for command line editing. I've tried both application cursor keys and normal cursor keys in the GENERAL setup for dxterm and neither setting works properly. All of this is while using VT300 mode,7-bit controls. SET TERM/INQUIRE returns an "unknown terminal type" when using 8-bit controls. Anyone have any suggestions? -- michael ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Michael McGuffey, Senior Software Applications Analyst Phone: 304/696-3212 University Computer Center FAX: 304/696-3601 Marshall University BITNET: mcguffey@muvms3 Huntington, WV 25755-5320 Internet: mcguffey%muvms3@wvnvms.wvnet.edu
