- How does one disable the ^C and ^E interrupt and abort keys coming from the
- Graphic File Manager (GFM). I have used _gs_opt() and _ss_opt() to reset
- the kbich and kbach to 0. And, this seems to have not affect.
- The options are changing for I also turned echo off so keys pressed on the
- /kbd device are not echoed to the /vid device and this worked.
-
- This eliminated the double character problem that I was having.
-
- I am using the pty manager posted on hermit.cs.wisc.edu anon-ftp site written
- by Reimer Mellin. A shell ,'sh' from TOP, has been started with stdio paths
- set to the /tty side of the corresponding /pty opened in the application.
- This provides for an interactive shell that can be used with the terminal
- emulation feature of the GFM. However, umacs gets interruptted or cancelled by
- ^C or ^E characters and the shell prints 7m* Interrupt *m or 7m* Cancel *m
- and exits umacs abnormally leaving the /tty in raw mode.
