Are you sure that Kermit is in WordPerfect keyboard mode?
If so, the terminal type name at the bottom has "-W" appended to it,
e.g. "VT320-W".
When this question was posted originally, I said that the way to get into
WordPerfect Keyboard Mode was by giving the following command at the K-95>
prompt:
set terminal keyboard-mode wp
Later Jeff said you can also do this with the key combination:
Ctrl-Alt-Shift-W
but this might not work for everybody. If you tried this and you didn't
get the "-W" indication, try giving the command at the prompt.
: Any differences between Dos and Unix WP commands?
:
I don't know. Kermit's WordPerfect keyboard is for host-based (UNIX or
VMS) versions of WordPerfect.
In the DOS version of Kermit, this was accomplished by long key-settings
files, which you can still read to get an idea of which keys were mapped
to what functions. We have a bunch of these files, submitted by different
users, some of them by WordPerfect Corporation itself:
ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/a/msiwp.ini
ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/a/msiwp3.ini
ftp://kermit.columbia.edu/kermit/a/msiwpu.ini
Note: these files are not for use with Kermit 95, but if you read them
(especially the last two), you should get an idea of what the key
assignments are.
