  • Shift+F10 on putty

    From Philipp Giebel@2:240/5853.2 to All on Mon Jun 3 10:21:48 2019
    Hey everybody!

    I still have some small problems using golded over putty..
    Most annoying is that I can't press Shift+F10 for Nodelist lookups.
    Compiled nodelists do exists though, but the keys are somehow misinterpreted and lead me to the msg# selection instead of the nodelist lookup dialogue... Most of the other keys, like unshifted function keys, are working fine.

    These are my putty settings concerning encoding:

    Backspace: Control-? (127)
    Home and End: Standard
    Function keys and keypad: Xterm R6
    Charset: ISO-8851-1 (Latin-1)
    Terminal: xterm

    I think, I've tried every possible combination of these setting, no matter whether they make any sense or not...
    Does anyone have any suggestion?

    Cheers and thanks,
    Philipp

    The easiest solution is to redefine the key in golded.

    You can also try to play with the termcap info on the computer where Golded is running on.

    But I would simply assign another key to the lookup, and that is that.

    Just define a 'special' keytab for this. Golded can use a special keyset, if defined. You can also start with a different configfile using 'golded -c foo.cfg' Take a look in your inbound, I've sent my goldkeys.cfg to your system.

    #F10 EDITlookupdest
    F10 EDITlookuporig

    # = shift

    Uh, i noticed i never had use for that. Destination is me within netmails, all or me within echomails.

    These are my putty settings concerning encoding:

    Backspace: Control-? (127)

    Sorry, no. But i can confirm that i use the same putty settings to control golded on a Debian system and that shift-F10 does not work here too, while F10 works as designed.

    You're awesome! :)
    But I think, that's the same what I did.
    I do have a special goldkeys.cfg, based on the included example, but with "F10" and "#F10" interchanged, so now I can open the nodelist lookup, but not the addressbook, which is fine for me, for now..
    Or didn't I get right, what you're doing in your goldkeys.cfg? Is there a way for making both keys work, I didn't get or was it just an example on how to remap the hotkeys?

    Cheers,
    Philipp

    Both, an example and a possible workaround.

    I think, it is possible to make both keys work. But this you've got to figure out by yourself. Over the years I made 'my' own golded, wich is working for me with the keytabs and with the codepages. Possibly you've got a complete other setup, which is not called OS/2. ;-)

    You could work around that by creating your own privat nodelist.

    I used that for international points. my_list.pvt started with

    ;Node,<4Daddr>[ <region>[ <hub>]],[SysName],[Ort],[Sysop],[Tel#],BAUD,[Flags] ;Node,[Address],leer,empty,[Sysop],-Unpublished-,[Baud],[Flags]

    for phone and IP contacts. One line for each node or point. That list was then included to my local nodelist by fastlst with the last configuration line:

    NodeList my_list.pvt ; private list of me

    That's one funky solution! :) Hope, I'll remember this, when I need it, or at least that it was you who told me.. ;)
