Re: ALT-F1 key mapping -- LINUX5250

Control-H moves the cursor to the bottom of the screen? I looked in the
Winterm.c file and it shows the scroll key mapped to help but when that
is pressed it is looking for a PCO.exe program. Any other ideas?

Thanks,

Our users are using tn5250 to connect and run our back office

screen function and ALT-F1 for the help function. The ALT-F1 does
render the help screens when using the pc5250/iAccess emulator but

does

with the tn5250. Is there different key sequence that produces the
ALT-F1 codes in the tn5250 emulator?

Alt-F1? I would guess pc5250 has that particular combination mapped to
the HELP key. tn5250 uses control-h for that.

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
