I think that some of the "special keys" don't work correctly on the RT's.
The first time you'll need a special key is when you attempt to run
the tutorial.
================================================================
USING 20/20'S ON-LINE TUTORIALS
20/20 provides a series of on-line tutorials, designed to teach you
its basic concepts and techniques. To start the tutorials from
within 20/20, make sure the Ready: prompt is displayed in the upper
left corner of your screen. Then, press:
<DO>
20/20 prompts: DO Command File:
You type: /usr/2020/tutor/begin<CR>
For the location of the <CR> and <DO> keys on your terminal, select:
1. 20/20's Special Keys.
================================================================
Table of special keys:
Key VT100,VT125 VT220,VT240 TEK4100 VIS550
Symbol Keys Keys Series Keys Keys
-----------------------------------------------------------
<BKO> Backspace F12 Backspace Backspace
<CALC> space bar space bar space bar space bar
<CONT> PF3 F9 F7 F3
<CR> Return Return Return Return
<DEL> Delete Delete Rubout Delete
<DO> PF2 F8 F6 F2
<DN> down arrow down arrow F2 down arrow
<END> control Z control Z control Z F11
<GOTO> > > or Find > > or F4
<HELP> PF4 Help F8 F1
<HOME> control A control A control A F10
<LF> left arrow left arrow F3 left arrow
<PAGE> PF1 Next Screen F5 F5 to F8
<PTO> down arrow down arrow F2 down arrow
<RBO> control X control X Delete F9
<RT> right arrow right arrow F4 right arrow
<UP> up arrow up arrow F1 left arrow
================================================================
As far as I can tell, NO key will perform "DO", "CONT", "BKO" or "PAGE". You
can get help by doing /h, but the analogy doesn't hold for "DO",
"CONT", "BKO" or "PAGE".
Actually, even if you could get the "DO" function, you probably still
couldn't run the tutorial, as "/usr/2020/tutor" doesn't exist.
fountain /mit/carla :-) ls -lg /usr/2020/tutor
/usr/2020/tutor not found
fountain /mit/carla :-)
(Also, in reference to my last report, it does matter that I was on an
RT, since the vax version of 2020 is on the RVD)
Thanks!
