The "diamond" keys are "Meta" keys, so you should probably use "Meta",
or do whatever it is that Xt expects you to do to use the Meta key.

Alt Graph is the "Mode_switch" key; it may or may not have a modifier
associated with it (the theory is that it's like Shift, in that Alt
Graph plus some key would cause that key to generate a character other
than the ones it generates with neither Alt Graph nor Shift down or with
Shift down - it's used in some non-US keyboard layouts).

>and how do I distinguish between the two delete keys?

Unfortunately, there's no "KP_Delete" keysym, so the keypad "delete" key
appears to have the keysym "Delete", just as the other "delete" key
does.

If you want to distinguish between them, you'll have to bind another
keysym to the keypad "Delete" key, using "xmodmap".

>Also, how do I switch

If you're using the Open Windows server, the Num Lock key will do it for
you.

If you're using the MIT X11R4 or MIT X11R5 server, there may be a patch
that will cause the Num Lock key to do it for you.

>For the above mappings that use Alt, I would like to use the 'Alt Graph'
>key instead.

Use "xmodmap" to bind the "Alt Graph" key to the "Alt_R" keysym, and to
hang the "Alt" modifier from it; that will cause it to be an "Alt" key.

One of my co-workers is having a problem with ToolTalk programming.  If you
can help, please respond via email.  Thanks.


I've just started learning about ToolTalk, and have run into a problem
which so far continues to mystify me. I copied the demo source code from
$OPENWINHOME/share/src/tooltalk into my own tooltalk directory, and
built them using the 'make' command. When the Makefile gets to the
part where the ptype and otype definitions are to be installed in the
Classing Engine, I get the following error:

% make
tt_type_comp -DTOOLTALK_DEMO_DIR=`pwd` edit.types.model
Received Classing Engine error 1 (Error reading db)
Can't read types in user database
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `edit.types'

Is there a problem with tt_type_comp? Or is it my ~/.cetables/cetables file?
(My File Manager works fine, even with new icons that I have added). I
even tried copying in a different cetables file (saving my old one first,
of course).

I have both xmodem (3.9) & kermit on a Sun Sparc.  I have not been able to
transfer files with either.  The log file contains (Timeout - Remote system
not responding).  The scenario is that I tip out to a modem from the Sun tty

have experience with this?

Date: 11 Jan 93 16:30:36 GMT

Has anyone ever heard of a tty-based interface to the "database" used by
the cm(1) calendar manager?  I'd like to be able to check my appointments
from a remote login, and running X on my home machine just to support cm(1)
seems a bit much :-)   Something as simple as a command to show all the
appointments on a given date would be more than adequate.

Lacking that, does anyone know any details about the interface to the
rpc.cmsd RPC server which might let me roll my own?  I suppose I could
always parse the log in /var/spool/calendar, but I'd rather do things
"right" by going through the cm server.

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
pete

A cross-compiler? I don't think so. Couldn't find anything in the Catalyst
catalog, either (1991, but this isn't exactly a hot commercial niche).

You might be better off using f2c and then using the GNU C cross-compiler. It
will generate 68020 code, but that will at least run on a 68030.

Good luck!

Hello,
I have a user who runs two or more filemgr's simultaneously, on different
clients, displayed on one server. Under Openwindows 2.0, SunOS 4.1.1, he
used 
filemgr -Wb 0 200 200 ...

them apart.
The Openwindows 3.0 version of filemgr overrides his specified colour 
for the background with white. Foreground colour changes do work, however.

This happens with filemgr on machines running SunOS 4.1.2 and 4.1.1

I can't find 'install_filemgr' mentioned in the man page. Anyone have a fix?

I believe you have to install the fonts in the Families.list, Compat.list,

I don't know if a fix was given but I think I know what the problem is.

When a SYN segment is received on a TCP in TIME_WAIT, the old TCP end-point
is closed (tcp_close()) and the BSD code jumps back up to start over
processing the SYN segment from scratch (look for the "goto findpcb;").
The problem is that the TCP options (MSS) are processed and discarded in the
first pass and so are missing on the pass that actually creates the new
connection.  The new connection defaults to tcp_mssdflt (roughly 512 bytes).

I ran into this problem while implementing RFC 1323 (window scaling/
time stamps).  The options in the SYN were discarded in those cases
and so window scaling and time stamps wouldn't occur on those
connections.

Apparantly, rlogin and rcp use the SOREUSEADDR flag and they tend to
hit on this problem (since they'll use the same local port number over
as soon as it's available).

This problem will be fixed in the IRIX releases that have RFC 1323
TCP extensions.

Sounds like the WP5.1X isn't PostScript DSC compliant, so the NeWSprint filter

I have a friend who needs FORTRAN for his Sun 3/80 running 4.1

Anyone getting rid of their old Sun 3's?

Well, the cm(1) manual page doesn't mention them... I don't know
why. You should take a look at

	cm_insert
	cm_delete
	cm_lookup

They are all tty based interfaces to the Calendar Manager. You can
find them in the $OPENWIN/bin directory of OpenWindows 3.0. So just
type in "cm_lookup -v week" and you'll see all your appointments of 
this week.
