    Xterm Control Sequences EdwardMoy University of California, Berkeley Revised by Stephen Gildea XConsortium (1994) Thomas Dickey XFree86 Project (1996-2003) Definitions c The literal character c. C Asingle (required) character. Ps Asingle (usually optional) numeric parameter,composed of one of more digits. Pm Amultiple numeric parameter composed of anynumber of single numeric parameters, separated by ;char- acter(s). Individual values for the parameters are listed with Ps . Pt Atextparameter composed of printable characters. C1 (8-Bit) Control Characters The xterm program recognizes both 8-bit and 7-bit control characters. It generates 7-bit controls (by default) or 8-bit if S8C1T is enabled. The following pairs of 7-bit and 8-bit control characters are equivalent: ESC D Index(IND is 0x84) ESC E Next Line ( NEL is 0x85) ESC H TabSet ( HTS is 0x88) ESC M Reverse Index( RI is 0x8d) ESC N Single Shift Select of G2 Character Set ( SS2 is 0x8e): affects next character only ESC O Single Shift Select of G3 Character Set ( SS3 is 0x8f): affects next character only ESC P Device Control String ( DCS is 0x90) ESC V Start of Guarded Area ( SPA is 0x96) Xterm Control Sequences C1 (8-Bit) Control Characters ESC W End of Guarded Area ( EPA is 0x97) ESC X Start of String ( SOS is 0x98) ESC Z Return Terminal ID (DECID is 0x9a).

  • ANSI Escape Code "ANSI Code" Redirects Redirects Here. for Other
    ANSI escape code "ANSI code" redirects here. For other uses, see ANSI (disambiguation). In computing, ANSI escape codes (or escape sequences) are a method using in-b and signaling to control the formatting, color, and other output options on video text terminals. To encod e this formatting information, certain sequences of bytes are embedded into the text, which the terminal loo ks for and interprets as commands, not as character codes. ANSI codes were introduced in the 1970s and became widespread in the minicomp uter/mainframe market by the early 1980s. They were used by the nascent bulletin board system market to of fer improved displays compared to earlier systems lacking cursor movement, leading to even more widespread uu se. Although hardware text terminals have become increasingly rare in the 21st cee ntury, the relevance of the ANSI standard persists because most terminal emulators interpret at least some ofof the ANSI escape sequences in the output text. One notable exception is the win32 console component of Microsof t Windows.

One example is th e VT52 terminal, which allowed the cursor to be placed at an x,y location on the screen by sending the ESC c haracter, a y character, and then two characters representing with numerical values equal to the x,y locat ion plus 32 (thus starting at the ASCII space character and avoiding the control characters).

The same conditions apply to any derivative of the FAQ as apply to the FAQ itself. Ev- ery copy of the FAQ must include this notice or an approved translation, information on who is currently maintaining the FAQ and how to contact them (including their e-mail address), and information on where the latest version of the FAQ is archived (including FTP information). The FAQ may be copied and redistributed under these conditions, except that the FAQ may not be embedded in a larger literary work unless that work itself allows free copying and redistribution.

The FAQ is maintained as a Texinfo document, allowing us to create HTML, Info, and TeX documents from a single source file, and is slowly but surely being improved. Please bear with us as we improve on this format.

Introduction Every Linux user has been sooner or later trapped in a situation in which having working Backspace and Delete keys on the console and on X seemed impossible. This paper explains why this happens and suggests solutions. The notions given here are essentially distribution-independent: due to the widely different content of system configuration files in each distribution, I will try to give the reader enough knowledge to think up his/her own fixes, if necessary. I assume that the Backspace key should go back one character and then erase the character under the cursor. On the other hand, the Delete key should delete the character under the cursor, without moving it. If you think that the function of the two keys should be exchanged, in spite of the fact that most keyboards feature an arrow pointing to the left ( ) on the Backspace key, then this paper will not give you immediate solutions, but certainly you may find the explanations given here useful.

  • Configuring TN3270 13-1 Cisco’S Implementation of TN3270
    CHAPTER 13 Configuring TN3270 IBM 3270 display terminals are among the computing community’s most widely implemented and emulated for host-based computing. Information in this chapter will help you understand the TN3270 terminal emulation environment, and how to use and create files that will allow terminals connected to the communication servers to be used for TN3270 operation. For a complete description of the commands in this chapter, see the Communication Server Command Reference publication. Cisco’s Implementation of TN3270 The TN3270 terminal emulation software is based on software developed at the University of California, Berkeley. This software allows any terminal to be used as an IBM 3270-type terminal. Users with non-3270 terminals can take advantage of the emulation capabilities to perform the functions of an IBM 3270-type terminal. Specifically, Cisco’s implementation supports emulation of an IBM 3278-2 terminal providing an 80 by 24 display. True IBM 3270-type terminals use a character format referred to as extended binary-coded decimal interchange code (EBCDIC). EBCDIC consists of 8-bit coded characters and was originally developed by IBM. Emulation is made possible by termcap and curses functions developed by Berkeley UNIX system developers. These functions translate the keyboard and terminal characteristics for ASCII-type terminals into those expected by an IBM host. ASCII characters are listed in the “ASCII Character Set” appendix in the Communication Server Command Reference publication. Formally, a termcap is a two-part terminal-handling mechanism. It consists of a database and a subroutine library. The database describes the capabilities of each terminal to be supported; the subroutine library allows programs to query the database and to make use of the values it contains.
