Hi
Can konsole generate escape sequences from the keypad to emulate a vt100 terminal in ansi application mode? I need eg keypad 0 to send an <esc>Op to my application.
Yes, IIUC Konsole will do VT100 emulation.
You will need to define a new Konsole type (you probably didn't know that they existed :-)). So, it will be easier if you first add the special button: "Terminal Session".
Then to make a new: "Session" choose:
Settings => Configure Konsole
Then under the: "Session" tab you can make a new session and choose: "vt100" as the: "Keytab".
I don't know for sure if this will work.
Yes, I tried this, but it doesnt seem to do the keypad correctly.
At the end of the file /usr/share/apps/konsole/vt100.keytab there is a comment thats not very clear:
# keypad characters as offered by Qt # cannot be recognized as such.
I wonder what that means, in detail?
If not, you can use Xterm and RTFM on how to set it up.
The keypad from xterm works fine after a little xmodmaping. I would prefer to use konsole, but I couldnt get it to work with or without the xmodmapping. It would be good to know it actually had the functionality I'm looking for.
Thanks for your input.
