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.
