To restate:
I'd like to get tn5250, running in a linux console (control-alt-F1
thru 6 typically),
to make the numeric keypad + and - keys to always act as field+ and
field-
The normal top row +/= and _/- keys are fine as they are.
I'd also like Shift + Tab to work as backtab.
I've managed to get the Shift + Tab -> backtab remapping to work; this
(currently) requires modifying the Linux kernel keymap.
This is IMO a *very* ugly solution, though it's what we've done
with our
thin client terminals. It works decently as long as you're dedicating
the machine to the purpose.
Left control -> Reset mapping is a worse problem, in that it seems
to be
impossible to get left control to work as a reset key but also still
work as a control key key.
And Enter/Field Exit, Right Control/ Enter are in the same boat,
though
those don't work properly in xt5250 either.
Hi Alex
Can you tell me how you did it?
From Scott's response and a reading of that README file he mentioned
this
doesn't look very straight forward to me :-)
Remapping Field Exit and Enter to Control and Return wasn't mentioned
by my trainer gal.
Is that commonly done as well?
Brian
