You will want to find out if HOD was/is used when they run this against HP-UX system(s).
It has been a while since I worked on this kind of thing. I was dismayed to find that most of the termcap/curses support is for *output*. For input, more of the heavy lifting gets dumped on the apps themselves. That aspect (how much of the input side does the library handle automagically) may vary between HP-UX and Linux. -- R; <>< Rick Troth Velocity Software http://www.velocitysoftware.com/ On Wed, Nov 16, 2011 at 11:34, Smith, Ann (ISD, IT) <ann.sm...@thehartford.com> wrote: > It is vt420f.
