Function keys.

There are 12 function keys on the PC keyboard and 20 on the VT keyboard, so I map PC F1 thru F12 to VT F1 thru F12 (except for F1 thru F5 as noted below) and PC Shift F1 thru Shift F10 to VT F11 thru F20.		 == Function keys ==

 * premere F1 (PF1) poi 7 del numpad; cosi' entra in command mode

 * togliere pad numerico dal portatile altrimenti scrivi cazzate:
{{{

 * scrivere comando exit

 * ATTIVARE ANCORA pad numerico fn+numlock

 * premere ENTER, che stavolta sara' l'enter del pad numerico!

Se hai il tastierino numerico puoi evitarti l'INFERNO dell'abilitare/disabilitare il numeric keypad della tastiera del porcodio di portatile di merda. 		 * premere '''F1''' (PF1) poi '''F7''' (Keypad 7) per entrare in command mode

 * scrivere comando '''exit''' e premere '''F6''' (Keypad ENTER) invece di enter/invio :)

vmsterm

A very nice terminal emulation using xterm and some tweaks.

From http://invisible-island.net/xterm/xterm.faq.html:

This script is for people who wish to connect from a Linux or Unix computer to a VMS computer using telnet and get a good VT100 or VT220 emulation. The key mappings have been specifically designed to emulate the VT terminal auxiliary numeric keypad, so that you can use VMS EDT and TPU editors, as well as the many VMS applications use keys PF1 to PF4. The script should work with any recent version of Xterm using a standard extended IBM PC keyboard or a Sun keyboard.

About the keymappings. First the auxiliary numeric keypad. My prime objective with these mappings was to produce a setup that I could use with the EDT and TPU editors which make extensive use of the numeric keypad. The top row of keys PC numeric keypad (Num Lock, Divide, Multiply, Subtract) are where you find PF1, PF2, PF3, PF4 on a VT keyboard, so I have mapped them to PF1 thru PF4. The PC numeric keypad Add key (+) takes up the space of two keys which are Minus and Comma on the VT keyboard – I have mapped it to Comma (Delete Character in the EDT editor). I have then used the PC Pause key to map to VT key Minus (Delete Word in the EDT editor). The remaining keys on the auxiliary numeric keypad are the same for PC and VT.

The six keys between the main and numeric keypads on the PC (Insert, Home, Page Up, Delete End, Page Down) are usually mapped to the VT keys by either position or by (approximate) function. As I rarely use these keys I have mapped them by function as follows: PC key Insert to VT Insert Here, PC Home to VT Find, PC Page Up to VT Prev, PC Delete to VT Remove, PC End to VT Select, PC Page Down to VT Next.

Function keys

There are 12 function keys on the PC keyboard and 20 on the VT keyboard, so I map PC F1 thru F12 to VT F1 thru F12 (except for F1 thru F7 as noted below) and PC Shift F1 thru Shift F10 to VT F11 thru F20. The VT keys F1 thru F5 are local hardware function keys so there is nothing to emulate, however some PC to VT emulations in the past have mapped PF1 thru PF4 here, so I have done that too, even though they are already mapped on the auxiliary numeric keypad.

F6 is now mapped to Keypad ENTER, that's very useful! F7 is now mapped to the 7 in the numeric keypad, useful to enter command mode in RT-11 EDIT pressing PF1-keypad 7!

Xterm functionality

You lose some xterm functions when you remap the keyboard, however this script implements a scroll back buffer of 1000 lines which you scroll through using Shift and Up (a.k.a. Up Arrow or Cursor Up key) or Shift and Down.

COME USARE EDIT di RT-11 con vmsterm

Per creare un file si usa edit /cre: 

edit/cre file.txt

editare il file, poi per uscire salvando si fa cosi:

  • premere F1 (PF1) poi F7 (Keypad 7) per entrare in command mode

  • scrivere comando exit e premere F6 (Keypad ENTER) invece di enter/invio :)

I comandi della modalita' command sono write, exit e tanti altri. vanno pero' terminati coll'enter del pad numerico.
