Hi again,
see the new, separate thread for more USB-printer solutions :-)
A new thought: I got a VERY good suggestion for the problem of
FAT filesystems and file contents getting corrupted by those
power outages when the drivers restart the engines of the
trucks. You remember, I wondered wheth
Hi again,
somebody in another DOS forum pointed out that you can get ready
to use LPT2USB online, although expensive, from various shops:

Hello Eric,
You are right.

and let us know.

Hi Aitor,
I would assume that right alt DELIBERATELY does not act like
a generic ALT key in EDIT: In German, for example, you need
that right "Alt Gr" key for some accented characters, so it
must not act as a function shift key. I remember not being
able to use some other editor exactly because
Hello,
Sounds like it could be a bug in Edit, I'll see about it when I have a
little time.
Now for the original question: is it possible to make R-Alt work like L-Alt?
It should be possible to do that with FD-KEYB.The idea is to intercept
Right-Alt and then emit Left-Alt, and get back to the BIOS
Hello there!
The documentation for the KEY language is included within the KC/KLIB

For some reason, I am no longer able to find the distribution of KC/KLIB
within Ibiblio or GitLab
(maybe Jerome can help?)
But fortunately, there is an online copy at:
