Hello, I'm new to EMACS and was reading the GNU Emacs manual and there was mention of a command edt-emulation-on. The book says that this will emulate Digitals EDT editor. The command was taken and the status line says that it loaded everything fine but when I try the keypad nothing seems to work like EDT. I'm using an NCD 19 X terminal. Is there some STTY command or something that I should do to enable the keypad the right way ???? Thanks, -Steve-

I have the same question (emacs 18.57) -- I'm using a DecStation 500/133, and edt-emulation-on does nothing -- I don't even get arrow keys (there used to be an "enable-arrow-keys" command as I recall). Secondly, if I run emacs in its own X window, I can't figure out how to get application keypad mode -- it's always numeric. -- <> Allen M.

The EDT emulation that comes with EMACS is incomplete. There are much
better EDT emulators for EMACS in the EMACS lisp archives (mentioned
below). Here's the blurb on the one I wrote.
** Introducing TPU-edt -- emacs emulating TPU emulating EDT **
TPU-edt features the following TPU/edt functionality:
. EDT keypad
. Repeat counts
. Learn sequences
. Multiple windows and buffers
. On-line help
. TPU line-mode REPLACE command
. Rectangular cut and paste
. Wild card search and substitution
. Configurable through an initialization file
TPU-edt works on any VT-series compatible terminal or emulator, is
easy to install and use, and even comes with an UNDO function not
available in TPU. Try TPU-edt today. We think you'll agree that
it does a lot better TPU/edt emulation than vi does!
Please note that TPU-edt does NOT emulate TPU. It emulates TPU's
EDT emulation. Very few TPU line-mode commands are supported.
TPU-edt is available from the elisp archives. They are are
accessible via anonymous ftp from
archive.cis.ohio-state.edu:pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive
TPU-edt is in the modes subdirectory with the name tpu-edt.tar.Z.
