- A well known "feature"..........
-
- On page 131 in the PC-NFS 4.0 Reference manual it says:
-
- ...(No mapping of keyboard input is performed.)...
-
- Which is a pitty for us non-english speaking..... We have approx. 1500
- PC-NFS users wanting to upgrade here at the University of Oslo, but we
- hesitate because of the lack om keyboard mapping in Telnet.
-
- A while ago I contacted both our Norwegian SUN-retailer and SunSelect
- directly to get a version with keyboard mapping features. To date
- I have not seen any fixes or heard of any plans for it :-(
-
- Hopefully something will emerge soon, very soon!
