Follow up question then....
The value of the pchars option is 23600, is this octal? Hex? Decimal? If I want to pass all characters then I would need a value of 37777777777 octal…. ================================================= Joseph Ambrose 172 Ketcham Avenue Amityville, NY 11701 Primary: 631-598-0528 Mobile: 516-380-6047 Email: joe11...@verizon.net Profile: http://www.linkedin.com/in/jambrose0321 Blog: http://houseofdoejoegetsbigger.blogspot.com/ -----Original Message----- From: Simh [mailto:simh-boun...@trailing-edge.com] On Behalf Of Johnny Billquist Sent: Saturday, May 27, 2017 8:27 PM To: simh@trailing-edge.com Subject: Re: [Simh] Questions about VT emulation The pchar mask is to tell which characters are let through on the console port. It's "printable characters". Essentially, characters not in that mask just gets dropped without being printed. Will it affect escape sequences? Yes, if the escape character, or any other character in that sequence are among the characters filtered out, then you will not what you might be expecting. As for "usable VT emulators", it all depends on what your expectations and demands are. Pretty much any terminal emulator will have some level of VT emulation in there. But most of them have some bugs somewhere or another. It you are really picky, then the only one I've found acceptable is xterm, and the actual DEC terminal emulator in Pathworks. But for most people, something like Putty works well enough.
