-
- AT>I'm actually using OS/2 Communications Manager for Warp as my 3270
- AT>terminal emulator. I can generate any hex character in a TSO/ISPF edit
- AT>session, but the ones you mentioned (which are in the yellow book!)
- AT>display back as spaces.
-
- My reference to CM/2 is Communication Manager for OS/2.
-
- The following are the instructions that I put together for our group
- to get the square brackets to work under Communication Manager for OS/2.
-
- -------------------------- cut here -------------------------------
-
- For those who running CM/2 v1.1, I have (finally) figured-out how to
- correctly display (both) square brackets on the 3270 sessions.
-
- It is a two step process:
- (1) get and modify CPT (Code Point Table)
- (2) Remap your host keyboard.
-
- Note: The order is important!!!
-
- Part 1:
- - Go to an OS/2 command line (either windowed or full screen).
- - Change to the CMLIB subdirectory ie. C:\CMLIB
- - Run the following program: ACSGCCRT.EXE (make sure you are in C:\CMLIB)
- - Make a backup copy of 037.CPT (ie. copy 037.cpt 037.saf)
- - Edit (with either E.exe or Kedit.exe) the file 037.CPT
- - change the following items:
-
- Left_Bracket from BA to AD
- Right_Bracket from BB to BD
-
- Y_Acute_Capital from AD to BA
- Diaeresis/Umlaut_Accent from BD to BB
-
- - make sure 037.cpt is sorted from 00 to FF <== very important
- - save the file.
- - stop then restart the Communication Manager.
-
-
- Part 2:
- - From a host session: select "Keyboard" then select "Remap Keyboard".
- - Now select the "[" (left bracket key) to edit.
- - press "["
- - close the edit key window.
- - Now select the "]" (right bracket key) to edit.
- - press "]"
- - close the edit key window.
- - Close the Keyboard Utility and save your changes.
-
-
- Now you are ready to use "[" and "]" as they should be used.
