Brian, a couple of questions:

* Which OS are you running Wine under?
* Which version of Wine are you running?

The reason I ask is because running this program on Windows ...

300:AD 00 C0
303:10 FB
305:8D 10 C0
308:8D 80 04
30B:20 DA FD
30E:A9 04
310:85 29
312:A9 00
314:85 24
316:85 25
318:85 28
31A:4C 00 03

I'm seeing all the keys working:

* 80 ^@ Ctrl-Shift-2
* 9B ^[ Ctrl-[
* 9C ^\ Ctrl-]
* 9D ^] Ctrl-]
* 9E ^^ Ctrl-Shift-6
* 9F ^_ Ctrl-Shift--

I _do_ know that the Ctrl-# keys were being reserved on OSX -- I had to go under ...

Apple Menu > System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts

.... before Wine would see them. Let me see OSX's Wine + AppleWin reports ...

Maybe it is a Wine bug?

Michael

Hmm, OSX 10.10.x and wine-1.8.1 (guess I should upgrade to 2.x) ...

Works:

* Ctrl-[
* Ctrl-\
* Ctrl-]
* Ctrl-_

Doesn't work:

* Ctrl-Shift-2
* Ctrl-Shift-6

I'll try to fire up my Linux box tomorrow and see what Applewin + Wine reports there ...

Wine 1.6.2, under Linux Mint 17.3 Cinnamon.

Nothing seems to be catching the keys before Wine; KEGS32 gets them.

AppleWin has no issue then when running in Windows? I didn't think so since
mine works under Windows XP, Windows 7, and Windows 10.

So I conclude that the thread should be a Wine issue and does not belong in
comp.emulators.apple2...

Or did I miss something? Mint Jelly on Cinnamon Toast!

Well technically, (officially?) we don't support Wine but if people are running into Wine bugs I have no problem them being in this newsgroup -- as that provides a consolidated point of reference that we can forward to the Wine guys to fix.

Thanks for being kind to us weirdos who run AppleWin in unplanned ways.
For not being officially supported, it runs pretty well. :)

There is nothing weird about wanting to be free of the tryanny of Microshaft and valuing liberty.

Heck, this year I find myself more often then not running AppleWin under OSX + Wine more then Windows. The annoyances of Wine are starting to add up.

All the more reason it would be nice to be able to isolate the core from
WinAPI and VS, so a *x version could be made from the same source tree. ;)

-uso.

Has anyone used LinApple?

Yeah, but it can't necessarily benefit automatically from advances in
AppleWin.

That said it isn't bad by any means for what it is.

What would be nice would be to have an SDL version of AppleWin.

That's one of my long term goals for AppleWin. The problem is that this requires a rewrite -- and I have too many other projects that are higher priority.

That's what LinApple is -- except it had too many architecture changes / breakage for us to merge back into AppleWin. i.e. There is no debugger. Now that we're using Git we should probably start a SDL branch at some point.
