Linux and Euphoria...
Hi guys,
Been having a tough time with Euphoria and Linux. Everything seems to
work great via the console yet when I go to X and use Euphoria via
terminals I run into problems. Testing various terminals, some just do
not pickup the key codes correctly. For example, under xterm when F1 is
pressed key.ex (included with euphoria) shows 3 keys were pressed (27,
79, 80). Most terminals I've tested (Konsole, xterm, gnome-terminal,
eterm) will give this same result. However, one exception is rxvt. It
will display 265 (correctly) for F1, but the other keys
(Home/End/Delete/All of the keypad) are messed up which isn't the case
of the others.
Things I've tried include using a default key map (pc104) instead of my
actual key map (microsoft, I own a Microsoft Natural Elite to be exact).
Using xmodmap to remap the keyboard correctly didn't work either
(Correct me if I'm wrong, but keycode 67 and keysym 0xffbe should be
right). Again, I want to repeat myself, it *DOES* work from the
console. It's just annoying I can't do it under X windows.
Seeing as exu (I think) is a static executable, this shouldn't be the
source of the problem. Maybe it's ncurses? By the way, other ncurses
based apps (mc to name one) work fine in an xterm or rxvt.
If anyone has this working under X just fine, please let me know. It's
really getting annoying now.
Well, I think you can see where I'm going with this. It makes it
extremely hard to use the trace features of Euphoria under X and even
ed.ex with the Home/End keys messed up. I'd be very appreciative of any
help in resolving this issuse. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Doug Miller
