Marc OK took a look at the screen shot. I do believe it is what I was thinking. That one is going to be a little hard to fix. Try the new one I sent you and let's see how that works. I do remember doing a little work to fix that problem. If it still does not work with the new one we will cre

Hello there, I want to ask when you plan to release a new binary version, because I don't want to install ant and maybe other programs/libs to compile tn5250j. I use 0.5.7 and it works for me with the known (and in the cvs solved) problems. -- Stefan Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Kenneth, Mostly, the forward delete key is the key which deletes character on and to the right of the cursor position. All people I know use the backspace key as a 'normal' delete key. For backspaces we have the arrow keys nowadays. And yes, I am talking about the backspace key, not the arrow keys

Marc about Number 3. Am not sure I am understanding what is going on. could you forward a screen capture to me or something. Have read it a couple of times and am thinking the following: The field is input capable and depending on an indicator can be either input capable or non input capable

Ahh I just started up the mocha emulator to see what it did. I got it now for the backspace key. Humm not sure I actually like the functionality really but now understand what you are asking. Here is what I see. It does do a destructive delete and leaves the last non blank character character

Ah then you are not talking about the backspace key itself but the back arrow key or I should say the non destructive keys. What is the foward-delete key? I know these are just definitions but could you put them into terms that are referenced in the tn5250j emulator? Quoting Marc Vos <[EMAIL P

Kenneth, You were faster then I expected thanks for the quick reply. About 1: yes, Mocha TN5250 can do that and it is very convenient. And no, it does NOT delete the character at that position. One can do that with the forward-delete key. Regards, -Marc Vos On 02-06-2005 09:25, "Kenneth Po

Hello Kenneth, Nice to meet you. I sent some ideas in some time ago: 1) It would be nice that when the cursor is at the beginning of an input-capable field, pressing the backspace key jumps backward to the last position of a previous input-capable field instead of moving into the protected screen
