Astrophysics Lines: 19 I think that I may have generated a driver for the vt52 at one time for pur-ee!sebok, my brother Dale at Purdue. He has it on his homebrew Z80 computer with a version of that screen editor that I modified to run under the FigForth dialect. For requests send mail to him. In the mean time the driver for the H19 terminal that is included is a good starting point. Just rip out most of the good stuff (line/character insert/delete, etc.). If the definitions of these are removed then the code will supply those functions (at reduced efficiency) itself. If anybody does write .../forth/termcap or .../forth/keys files for their favorite terminal I would appreciate receiving a copy for inclusion in my future distributions. And, again, when I get around to it I want to write a general default driver that uses /etc/termcap. I would only use it for default because the editor uses some terminal functions not defined in /etc/termcap. Or, if someone wants to beat me to it and send me a copy, feel free... -- Bill Sebok Princeton University, Astrophysics {allegra,akgua,burl,cbosgd,decvax,ihnp4,noao,princeton,vax135}!astrovax!wls
