I don't know, i am still not so set up to touch it so mey be anyone >in the busness would like to fix it? Was all the support in save_dev()? It wasn't well documented :-). (dset works on a copy of the devtabs instead of on the originals because some write to the devtabs.) dset is too quiet about the problem, with or without -q. (_isa_devlist no longer exists so the first nlist() fails.). > Second question is lame, but - how da hell i am getting this userconfig >to work.I have pcvt and when entering this nice red config screen(could we >PLEEASE change pcvt defaults???) - only buttons which work for me are TAB >and ENTER so the only thing i can do is expand first list of devices and that's >it....I guess this is some incompatibility betwin pcvt and config but this >does not helps me much... userconfig() handles the scancodeish values returned by sccngetc() for arrow keys (588 = up arrow). It attempts to handle ANSI escape sequences for arrow keys (`ESC [ A' for up arrow) but this seems to be broken (it doesn't work here for a serial terminal). pcvt apparently returns something different from syscons. I think it returns ESC [ A for the up arrow not on the numeric keypad but that doesn't work. Bruce
