My 5620 is working - it was the 7-8 bit thing.
 
     Thanks!  Are there any sources for other software which

You should use hardware tabs (-tabs), not expand-to-spaces (tab3).
Actually this shouldn't affect communication with downloaded processes,
if the host support was properly programmed.

not to use it.  It was used at a customer sight for about two months,
otherwise it is effectively new.

We can't return it, so if someone is intersted, we are willing to let it
go for $500.00.

The manual is included.  We will also include an Enhanced PC-Style

Hi,

I have recently acquired a Cybernex terminal, alas without
any manuals. It has keys for almost everything, but there is
no SETUP key that I can find! And no, there are no DIP switches
on the PCB...

If you know what magic sequence of keys to press to get the
terminal into a configure mode to set the baud rate, display
features etc. would you please let me know.



I'd also welcome any information about what escape sequences
it uses for screen control. I guess it must emulate something
more common. It has 4 screen pages, and some unusual (to me)
xmit and specify keys. A termcap entry would be a bonus!

It has 3 serial ports - 1 printer, and 2 others. Does this mean
it can communicate with 2 hosts?

Details:  Cybernex model RB-1210  made in Ottawa Canada Feb 1988.

Thanks

Nicholas.

I am having the same problem as a fellow who posted a message a while back 
re problems with HP terminals and UNIFY-4GL.  (I tried to reply, but my 
email message came back undeliverable)

I am using Informix 4GL v. 4.10 on an HP 9000/837.  Informix only supports
termcap while HP only supports terminfo.  When using the hp termcap, I am 
having the following problems:

     1)  Line drawing mode does not work properly.  I have set the gs, ge,
	 and gb termcap attributes per the Informix manual.  When a window
	 is displayed and then closed, the text underneath the borders of 
	 the window is left "trashed" in the alternate character set.

     2)  When displaying something in standout mode (reverse video) in a 
	 window, "holes" get punched in the right side of my window.

     3)  I THINK we have the function keys working properly, but I would 
	 still like to try to remap the informix accept key (default, escape)
	 to be the block enter key.

We have worked out a kludge solution.  I created a shell script to launch the
application which checks the term type using the termtype command.  If it's
an hp terminal, I am sending the proper control chars to force the terminal
into ANSI emulation, saving off the current value of $TERM, and setting 
$TERM to vt100.  This works fine because the vt100 termcap appears to be 
complete, but I'm not sure that it's a viable long term solution.

Does ANYONE have complete termcap entries for 70092, 70094, 2392A, etc?  
Has ANYONE used informix with HP terminals like this and had better luck
than me?  Please respond via email...  I anxiously await your reply.  If 
there's no help out there, I guess I'll have to tear into this problem, but
I'm under a short deadline and your help will be GREATLY appreciated!!!

Thanks.

	I am interested in getting a compact, cheap terminal. I have used a 
Zeos laptop computer with builtin modem and it is almost perfect for my needs,
however it is not mine to use regularly and it certainly has more than I need
on it (the hard drive makes it heavy).  I have heard of an old Radio Shack
computer (I believe the Tandy 102?) which had a 40x8 character LCD built into a
one piece flat panel shaped box (no folding screen panel), and that might be 
sufficient except that there is no modem built in.
	The minimal-ideal terminal I am looking for might be:

		LCD display at least 40x8 characters
		small footprint, no larger than a Zeos Laptop
		battery powered 
		builtin modem at least 1200 baud
		some terminal software to connect to a Unix machine
		less than $500 price tag (new)

Notice I didn't mention any OS or software or hard disk or floppy disk.  
Currently, I don't care about any expandability, peripherals or growth 
potential, as long as it will connect me to a Unix machine over a phone line.
It can be a palmtop, but an internal modem must be an option.
	Am I asking too much (or rather too little)? Is there a market for 
portable notebook terminals that will fit in your brief case, but don't cost
as much as the laptops that run DOS or Windows? Thanks for any info!

A bit larger, a bit heavier, and a bit slower than you specify, but a whole 
lot cheaper (if you can still find one :-) ), is the Tandy 600.  The screen
(not back-lit) sports 16 80-character lines, the built-in modem is 300 baud
(only), there's a primitive version of Microsoft Works built in, and the
price of mine (new, left over from an abandoned layaway), was $100.- (!) .

figures are in Pounds Sterling.

Hi Again.

If you read the documentation carefully ;-) you will find the following:

..The optional argument template for an nprocedure is specified as a list of three elements...

Together with the example:

nprocedure( test(arglist (2 5 "Sg")) ... )

What you have done is to miss the space between arglist and the template list.

In pure lisp format, this would be written as:

(nprocedure (test arglist (2 5 "Sg)) ... )

From this it is obvious that the first argument to the nprocedure function is a list
whose first argument is the function name, second argument the formal function
argument and (optional) third argument is another list of three values.

I hope this helps.

Ian.
