vt220 question

Jay> Ok, the post from Kevin reminds me of a VT220 question I've been Jay> wondering for some time. Is there a "BREAK" key on the vt220 Jay> terminal???? I can't find it, nothing is labelled "break".

Yes. One of the F keys (F5?). The "BREAK" will appear on the function key label strip that goes under the flip-up clear cover above the row of function keys. It's on the label strip because the BREAK function (and other things, like SETUP) apply to terminals but not necessarily to other things that use the LK2xx series keyboard (like a PRO). You may also need to enable Break via setup; some vague memory says that it can be configured to be a regular break or it can be made to send control/C. Not sure about that; just walk through the setup menus to see if there's any mention of it there. paul
