Concerning "Visual" terminals ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// In September 1993, Visual Technology of Westboro, Massachusetts, merged with White Pine Software of Nashua, New Hampshire.

The last time I used a Visual terminal, there were several levels of menus accessed by pressing SHIFT-SETUP, and the last entry was always "SAVE." Try this: ESC P 1 ; 1 | 1 7 / 4 1 4 2 ESC \ Then press the function keys (and shifted function keys) to see if any of them changed to "AB." That's the sequence for setting SHIFT-F6 on a VT220. If so, then play around with the "17" above and substitute 1, 2, et cetera. -- James Carlson Tel: +1 617 272 8140 Annex Software Support / Xylogics, Inc. +1 800 225 3317 53 Third Avenue / Burlington MA 01803-4491 Fax: +1 617 272 3159 ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Newsgroups: comp.terminals Path: cs.utk.edu!darwin.sura.net!europa.eng.gtefsd.com!uunet!world!bfc From: bfc@world.std.com (brandon f chubb) Subject: vi102 Problems Solved (was: vt102 function keys) Message-ID: Organization: The World Public Access UNIX, Brookline, MA References: <1993Sep21.175445.21762@xylogics.com> <1993Sep21.202436.16506@xylogics.com> Date: Wed, 22 Sep 1993 14:28:14 GMT Lines: 4 Thanks for being patient everyone.

I bought some several years ago from Jim Relihan at 978/441-1343. He was with Visual, then started his own business, I believe.
