Hi, |

|
| 3 |
currently I am playing around with the simulation of on old PDP-10 |
| 4 |
(DEC). |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
It is real fun to see and feel, how this dinosaurs of high power |
| 7 |
computing (the CPU of the PDP10, the KL10 processor has eaten |
| 8 |
1.26 kW!!!!) |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
The installation of the old tapes to finally get a fully functional |
| 11 |
TOPS-20 OS requires to enter such mysterious key compbinations like |
| 12 |
CTRL-/ (which at least on a german keyboard produces something totally |
| 13 |
different. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Or in other words: |
| 16 |
The installation of the system is blocked by not haveing the correct |
| 17 |
keycodes. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
My questionis are: |
| 20 |
Are these old fashioned keycodes are part of a certain terminal emulation, |
| 21 |
so that I only have to change $TERM, or are they something to hack into |
| 22 |
.Xmodmap? |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Does anyone has a list with the mapping of these ancient keycode to |
| 25 |
any numerical value? |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Thank you very much ! Long lives the radio tube and CPUs of dicrete |
| 28 |
transistors!!! :) |
