If you don't know what keymap is loaded on you system, you can dump the current one with dumpkeys(1). - You can dump the Linux console terminfo entry with infocmp(1). The terminfo(5) man page describes the capability codes. - In the shell, you can enter ^V followed by the key in question, which will insert the literal escape sequence produced by the key in the command line buffer. > ie, what is sent when F5 is pressed?

I assume SecureCRT, whatever that is, emulates a DEC VT100 terminal. The VT100 had only four function keys, named PF1 to PF4. (The Linux console tries, within the limits set by the PC hardware, to emulate a DEC VT220 terminal, which is itself a superset of the VT100. Due to some substantial differences in the layout of the MF2 keyboard compared to a DEC LK201, there are some incongruencies regarding the function/special/keypad keys.) > Also, what terminal setting works best w/ Linux (and what is the > difference)? I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to ask. If you use the Linux console as terminal, obviously TERM=linux is correct. If you use some other terminal to access a Linux system, set TERM to the type of that terminal. -- Christian "naddy" Weisgerber [EMAIL PROTECTED] See another pointless homepage at <URL:http://home.pages.de/~naddy/>. -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
