I have a new terminal config I am testing and everything seems to work ok with the exception of Backspace when I am in SB+ apps. If I type 0 to get to TCL, backspace works as expected. I looked in TERM.DEFN but see do not see any settings for the Backspace key. Anyone have any insight? BTW, tmux from the BSD project works great on AIX. Checkout this screenshot. This is directly connected to aix, so I can detach/reattach this tty session. http://www.screencast.com/t/jcMJlS1M |

Look in /SB.PARMS F7-System Keys. The backspace definition is there. But ... it's system wide, not related to a specific terminal definition. Would probably be better if you could remap the backspace in that program to be ASCII 8.

And what's it doing/not doing in SB+? Just not working, or sending something "unusual"?

It is for every backspace moving the cursor one space to the right (instead of Left).
Ctl-h doesnt help.

I wonder if backspace is mapped to delete (ASCII 127)? Unidata would see it just fine, SB+ would puke all over it tho.

You might create and run this little program to see what key the emulator is sending...
LOOP
X = IN()
CRT SEQ(X)
WHILE SYSTEM(14) > 0 DO
REPEAT

This doesnt seem like an effective test because in unibasic it works. it is Paragraphs and Menus and slash commands where it will not work. Also if I enter /sh to go to shell from SB+ it will not work.

I understand that, but SB+ uses a different (and configurable) input mechanism that is different from a standard UniBASIC input. If we know what keys are being sent, we should be able to map SB+ accordingly, right? (Not saying this as any guarantee, but it seems plausible..)

Ah the "*nix Del".
Unfortunately SB+ stores the backspace key in a system-wide setting, but I wonder if it could be overridden by manipulating common? I just found that the backspace key is in @SB.CONT<26,2> so you might create a paragraph with this line, execute it from that telnet client, and see if it helps:
@SB.CONT<26,2> = 127
??

I can set it in the debugger to test.

Or even just /EP would work also.

no joy. made a paragraph called FIX.BS and placed the single like in it. I executed it and problem persists. I used CHANGE.TERMINAL to toggle to another and back, no luck. Verified in DEBUG that it had been changed from 8 to 127
