ACS terminal
KTERM=ACS
This terminal operates in two modes corresponding to the flow control selected. To work with KCML the terminal type should be set to ANSI unless your computer supports Wang flow control in which case you should set it to DW and consider the terminal to be a Wang 2336 with KTERM=wang.
The ACS has 16 function keys plus all the editing keys but in its ANSI mode some keys are incorrectly labelled:
Key | Description
|
---|---|
RESET | Not implemented, sends `@'. |
SHIFT RESET | Not implemented, sends `?'. |
HALT | The HALT key itself sends an XOFF character and will hang the terminal until CNTL-Q is pressed. |
SHIFT HALT | Same as HALT key |
CONTINUE | Not used, this key also sends XOFF. |
RECALL | Sends `:', use PF15 instead. |
SHIFT RECALL | Sends `;', use PF15 instead. |
FN | Use TAB key. |
SHIFT FN | Use key above TAB, labelled with braces. |
SHIFT CANCEL | Sends CANCEL. |
SHIFT DOWN ARROW | Sends FN, this is an ACS bug. |
Because the HALT key sends XOFF this key must not be used. Instead HALT should be redefined as CTRL-C and RESET as CTRL-R using stty in .profile
stty intr '^c' quit '^r'
This command is automatically added to the .profile file created by the kcmladmin installation program.
CONTINUE is defined as CTRL-F by the default TERMINFO.
