@X0AUsing the above keystrokes
--------------------------
@X02All systems should be able to use the Control Key method of performing the
above functions (press and hold the CTRL key while typing the letter key that
follows it in the above table).
@X02The more familiar PC Keyboard keys, such as the arrow keys, will work while on
locally. They will also work if your communications program is capable of
either sending the actual keystroke (keyboard scan code) or an ANSI escape code
equivalent through to the host system.
An example would be calling in from remote using Telix to connect to PCBoard
and utilitizing either the 'Doorway Mode' so that keystrokes are passed
directly on to PCBoard.
The ANSI escape codes are an alternate means of telling PCBoard to move the
cursor around on the screen. Some comm programs have a "Keyboard Emulation"
feature makes use of these ANSI codes without the need for Doorway Mode. Other
comm packages may be able to program the ANSI escape codes into function keys.
@X0AInsert Mode
@X0A-----------
While in 'Insert Mode' it should be noted that characters to the right of the
cursor will be pushed one character to the right as each letter is typed.
Additionally, pressing the (Enter) key while in Insert Mode will cause a new
line to be inserted.
@X0BNON-PC KEYBOARD USERS PLEASE NOTE!
@X0B----------------------------------
@X03Some modems and packet switch environments will filter out CTRL-S keystrokes
and interpret them to mean "stop sending data". In these environments
pressing @X0CCTRL-S@X03 will not move the cursor as expected - in fact it will
appear to do nothing. You will need to press @X0CCTRL-Q@X03 to get going again.
You can work around this by using @X0CCTRL-A@X03 which means move left to previous
WORD rather than moving a character to the left.
Those of you who can send either an @X0CESC[D@X03 or the PC scan code for the Left
Arrow will not encounter this problem and will never have to worry about it.
