ICE TCP-Plus and F1 key
« on: June 13, 2006, 04:00:13 pm »

 I'm new to supporting this program. I installed it on a new computer configured with Win Xp Pro. On the users old copmuter (win98) they would hit f1 while connected tot the host and it would send things to a printer connected to that host. On the new machine a @ symbol briefly appears but no print job.

 Looking at the old machine- there are no keys mapped nor is host print enabled. Where is the F1 defined? Is it something beyond ICE?

Thanks.

Check the terminal type. Function keys send different codes depending on how the terminal type is set. Set the new one to the same terminal type as the old one. Usually it's ansi 25 lines or wyse60 24 lines...

 Thanks. It finally dawned on me about an hour later that I hadn't set the temrinal to ANSI...duh..
 Thanks for the reply, this will be a very useful resource for me. I've read some good ones already.
