HP-UX (Non)Function Keys

[Peter Bateman]

Jon:

  I would check the stty settings. Make sure the <ESC> is not being
  used for something else. As well as DC1, DC2, DC3, DC4
  (Control-  Q,R,S,T)

  I would try

     cat   > mydata
      <F8>
     <Control D>
Hex dump of mydata
     od -x mydata

  If it looks like the escape sequence is showing up in mydata
  then it should also be read by QUICK.


   XmitFnctn(A) should be ON the default is OFF.

Regards,
Peter Bateman
