Here the problem, I'm trying to get Ms FoxPro from SCO Unix running on FreeBSD. I Have succeeded in getting corrrect operation on serial terminals, however I need to get correct operation on the console as well. The problem on the console seems to be more than an incompatible terminfo entry. These are the symptoms: The programs starts up and appears normal, but when I type in commands, the typing appears in white on black, not in the normal colour pair, when I press the [Enter] key the typed command appears on the left of the screen on the next line down, in the normal colour pair, and the cursor returns to the command window. No output from the program appears. FoxPro is still running however, as pressing [f10] [Enter] drops down the system menu as normal. This seems like more than a terminfo entry because there is no program output, it's as though what I type is not reaching FoxPro, which is odd considering my comments on the system menu. Do these symptoms ring a bell with anyone. How could I go about investigating the problem in more detail? Grateful for any advice or ideas. Thanks. Environment = FBSD 4.7, standard kernel, standard PC, MS FoxPro 2.6 for SCO Unix. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
